The Finder Astro Switch is designed for professionals seeking automated lighting control with advanced scheduling. Its key benefit is precise, flexible time delay operations adaptable to various industrial and commercial needs. A potential caveat is the reliance on external antenna for GPS time synchronization. This device offers annual programming, smartphone control via Bluetooth, NFC, and GPS time synchronization, making it ideal for applications like staircase and security lighting.

The astronomical function automatically calculates sunrise and sunset times for your location, eliminating the need for manual adjustment of schedules throughout the year due to changing daylight hours.
Yes, an external GPS antenna is required to receive satellite signals for accurate time synchronization. The switch itself does not have an integrated antenna.
While smartphone programming via Bluetooth/NFC is the most convenient method, basic programming might be possible through buttons and a display on the device itself for some models, though specific functions may be limited.
Each of the two changeover contacts is rated for 16A at 250VAC. It also has a high inrush current capacity of 120A.
Consult the device's specific manual for the reset procedure, which typically involves a button combination or a specific sequence within the app or on the device interface.
The product description does not specify outdoor rating. It is designed for installation within electrical enclosures, typically indoors or in weather-protected control panels.
The product details do not specify power consumption, but time switches generally have very low power draw during operation.
Verify the power supply is connected correctly to the 110-230VAC/DC terminals and that the power source is active. Check circuit breaker.
Ensure Bluetooth/NFC is enabled on your smartphone. Move the smartphone closer to the switch. Restart both the smartphone and the switch (by cycling power).
If using GPS, ensure the external antenna is properly connected and has a clear view of the sky. If not using GPS, manually set the time and date via the app or device interface. Check programming for conflicts.
Confirm the programmed schedule is active and the current time falls within the 'on' period. Check that the connected loads are within the 16A rating. Verify wiring to the changeover contacts.
Ensure the switch is powered on and within Bluetooth range. Close and reopen the app. If using NFC, ensure the phone is in direct contact with the switch.
