in a short time when the working condition is good.
For protection issues, please check the situation
with different indicator information:
Red flash: Check the output cables and load, make
sure no short circuit and the load current is in rated
range. Also the load must be constant voltage type.
Yellow flash: Check the installation environment,
make sure in a rated temperature range and with good
ventilation or heat dissipation condition.
9. Timing play with backup battery (-T version only)
A real time clock with backup battery is equipped
with the -T version model. With this feature, user can
setup timing play function with multiple repeating
features of weekday or date on the Umi Smart app.
