    Default How to set up timer

    Does anyone know how to program a digital timer that turns off for period of time then turns back on everyday? I have a 7 day timer looks like thishttp://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...ef=oss_product. For example: if I want it off from 1-2 pm every day. I have tried this setting but it failed to turn back on next day. Program 1: On at 14:00 everyday; OFF 0:00, Program 2: ON at 0:00 everyday; OFF 13:00. The timer failed to turn on at 0:00 under program 2.
