3 Цикл режимдери
The timer offers three distinct cycle modes to suit different operational needs:
- 24 Hour Cycle Mode: The set ON/OFF intervals repeat continuously throughout a 24-hour period. Ideal for ventilation fans or other devices requiring constant cycling.
- Day Cycle Mode: The set ON/OFF intervals only run during daylight hours, activated by the built-in light sensor. Suitable for irrigation systems that only need to operate when there is natural light.
- Night Cycle Mode: The set ON/OFF intervals only run during nighttime hours, activated by the built-in light sensor. Perfect for heater lamps in greenhouses or other devices that operate after dark.

4 ON/OFF Modes
Beyond cycling, the timer provides four direct ON/OFF control options:
- Дайыма КҮЙҮК: Keeps the connected device continuously powered.
- Дайыма ӨЧҮК: Keeps the connected device continuously unpowered.
- ON from Dawn to Dusk: Activates the device when light is detected and deactivates it when light fades.
- ON from Dusk to Dawn: Activates the device when light fades and deactivates it when light is detected.

Figure 5: ON/OFF Mode Visuals. This image displays the four ON/OFF modes, including Always ON, Always OFF, ON Only during the Day (Dawn to Dusk), and ON Only at Night (Dusk to Dawn), with examples like animal repellers and bug zappers.
2 Countdown Modes
The timer includes two countdown functionalities for automated device activation based on ambient light:
- Countdown from Dawn: The device will automatically start at dawn each day, run for a user-defined period, and then completely stop.
- Countdown from Dusk: The device will automatically start at dusk each day, run for a user-defined period, and then completely stop.
