Viponel s15 Timer

[tripleteer]

I have just bought a Viponel s15 timer but no instructions are with it, does anyone have a set of instructions that they could email me please. Thanks in advance Paul.

Isn't it selfexplanatory?
I see it for the first time, but this is what I make out of it:

-) x1/x10 = time range selector

-) white button = continuous light on

-) green button = start set timer

-) red button = stop timer/continuous light off

That's what I thought! But when I press the white light button, the green one depresses at the same time! The green button will go down on its own but the white one will not! I just thought I must be doing something wrong, the only thing I can think of is that the bulb needs replacing (I am having one delivered today!) so I thought that the manual may clear this up for me! Thanks for the reply though,Paul.

The bulb of the enlarger has no feedback an a timer.

If you press the white button and the green one goes with it, the timer will start?

Ok chaps, the new bulb has just arrived and it is in the enlarger! I press the white button and the green goes down with it! The bulb lights and the timer starts! This means that the timer is ticking away while I am focusing with the grain scope etc! So can I not just have the white light on its own? (Must I have to have the timer ticking away all the time?)..

Update, ok I think I have Sussed it! When I press the green button the timer starts! When I press the White button, the green button goes down with it, the light comes on, the timer start ticking but does not start counting down!
So when I am focusing although the timer is ticking, it is not counting so will not turn itself off.
The instruction manual would have saved me a bit of time.

I guess, when you have the timer running and exposing, if you stop the process by hitting the red button and then the green button again the timer will then proceed running down.

A great little timer... Too bad mine died after 25 years of service...
