Mist King Timer???

[ericasheree]

Hey Everybody,

I emailed Marty with this question BUT I know its the weekend and it could take some time to here back. I just received my mistking starter system and am SO VERY confused on how to set up the timer. The following is the message I sent to Marty. I would take any advice from people who know how to set these guys up.

Marty,

I was told to ask you if I had questions on the Mist King.
I can usually read directions pretty well, but I don't know how to set up the timer at all. I have read the directions multiple times but like algebra, sometimes it takes another perspective for it to click. I just want the mister to do the same schedule every week day with no change until the summer months when it gets HOT in Southern Utah;

His lights come on at 7am and off at 8pm

Would like this schedule:

8am-ON- 30-40 seconds
9am- 15 seconds
10am- 15 seconds
11am- 15 seconds
12pm- 15 seconds
1pm- 30-40 seconds
2pm- 15 seconds
3pm- 15 seconds
4pm- 15 seconds
5:30pm- 15 seconds
6pm- 30-40 seconds
7pm-15 seconds
8pm- OFF

If you could pretty please tell me how to do this I will VERY MUCH appreciate the help!!

The MistKing timer only holds 8 on/off times.
So you will have to find out what will work for you using 8.

To set the clock, hold clock, and press the hr and min buttons to set.
Then, press prog. It will be blank and labeled=1on. Set using the hr. and min. buttons.
Press program again, it will take you to 1off.
Press prog. again and it will take you to 2on.
Ect.

It took me almost a year but I finally figured it out
It helps to have someone else read the instructions to you while you do the steps.
Good Luck, and yes it only does 8 seperate events.

this is a good way of explaining it, just be sure to watch your am and pm setting esp, around the noon misting, wouldnt want it running for hrs
and when you are done you want it to be on off then push button once more to auto.
that way its "off" but with "auto" come on at the next schelualed time
