A: Yes, the app allows for multiple timers. One thing to remember is once you assign a friendly/logical name to each timer, you cannot re-name the timer in the app.

Answer This Question
A: Yes. I found a picture of my last installation. It had neutral connected. Neutral is the white wire in most US 120VAC wiring. For more information, I suggest going to intermatic.com, find the product, and review its instruction manual.

I looked at several timers. The wifi ones seem to be the best. This particular one allows you to control the functions from the front panel, and the Wifi app. There is no web interface, nor can you use a computer to control it. You have to use the panel, or a phone (iphone or android).
Of course, the app is pretty poorly designed and written. It needs an overhaul, but you can get it programmed the way you want it. It even has Auto-off function, whereby you can turn the device on manually, and it will turn it off at a set time.
The terminology for Dawn and Dusk is incorrect in the app. There is a difference between Dawn and sunrise. The device uses Sunrise time, not dawn, even though the app uses the word dawn.
Setup is a pain. I had to reset and try again about 4 times before I finally got it to connect to the Wifi. But this is typical of most all devices; they are always difficult to setup.
If you can live with the setup hassle, and the odd programming style, once your switch is setup, it pretty much just works.
For my case, I was replacing a whole house fan manual timer. You dial the knob to the time you want, and it runs for that time and shuts off. Now I can have it run automatically in the middle of the night when the air is coolest.

Wi-fi app controlled smart in-wall timer! Using timers to control lights is a great idea – I’ve been doing it for years. As timers grow more sophisticated they grow easier to set up and use. This wi-fi controlled switch is a great advancement. Intermatic is a name I have trusted for years for timers, both table top and in-wall units. Having the ability to automatically adjust the operation to dusk to dawn, following and adjusting for the seasons and DST, is a big plus. Multiple programs including three pre-programed modes allow you to set up both weekday and weekend patterns. Switch is easy to install – follow the clear directions. You need to download the Ascend app to control it. The app allows you to customize schedules, set the lights on and off, and set system parameters. You don’t need a hub to control the switch from your smart device. You do need to create an account on Intermatic if you want remote control from anywhere. I had a bit of a problem setting up the account – but full control of the switch is possible from the switch itself or from the local wi-fi network. Switch is rated at 15 amp, and up to a 1 hp motor, and is compatible with all light types. Switch can be wired as either a single or double pole application. Switch is also Alexa compatible, and can be set to be controlled with voice commands. A full function in-wall timer that make operation a snap.

If you’ve had experience with older, manually programmable in-wall times, you'll probably find this “smart” timer to be a real breath of fresh air. If (like me) you opt to install the Intermatic smart phone app (see picture), and the related remote programming options first rather than jumping right to manual programming on the timer itself, then the app will pre-program the local time, sunrise and sunset based upon your current location. It will also offer pre-set on/off times which you can easily modify online (with a phone or computer), as well as a random timing option and manual operation. No more crouching down and squinting at a small rectangular timer screen to set the programming. You can still revert to a manual entry technique in the absence of a smart phone or computer wi-fi connection, but it was far and away much easier to do this while sitting on a chair with my phone in hand.
Except for the fact, that it does REQUIRE a white (neutral) wire connection at the timer location, installation of the timer is straightforward (see picture). Before making this purchase, you may wish to check your electric wire configuration at the location you desire to use – it is not uncommon for a light switch to have only the hot (black) wire present at a switch box location, in which case this timer cannot be wired to that box without wiring modifications. The timer can also be used in 3-way switch configurations (switch operation at two separate locations) although I had no need for it.
The “Quick Tips” card enclosed with the timer, was all I needed to follow to synchronize the timer with my smart-phone through a Wi-Fi network. I suggest you do a quick read-through of these abbreviated instructions outlined on the card before proceeding, as it might save you any missteps. I found the set up to be easy, but not intuitive – following the steps as they were outlined was essential to a successful set-up. The set-up was interrupted by a request to update the Firmware (see picture), which I elected to do. The update was self-operational and did not interfere with a successful installation. I did not yet set up the timer to work with my Alexa device, but based on the ease of this initial setup, I fully expect that should be a breeze to do too.
I would recommend this product to a friend.

The timer was easy to install. By this, I mean the actual timer. I was replacing another companies in-wall timer so the space was perfect. After installing, I download the app to my phone and connected via wifi. It took about two times because you first connect to the "wifi" of the time, then you connect the time to your wifi. I got hung up because it wanted to update and couldn't connect. But I solved the problem and it works.
It automatically turns on and off the light because it know your location. You do not have to program it at all except how long you want the lights on for. The display is quite bright and almost acts as a nightlight.

I really like this switch. It is so convenient being able to manage these devices from my phone or through my Amazon Echo. The switch itself offers several programming options. You can program custom on and off times or you can set up the switch to be in one of three modes - On all night, On in the evening or On in the evening and morning. There is also a button on the switch to operate it manually or you can use the app or your Amazon Echo.
Installation is pretty straight forward. The switch can be installed in a single switch configuration or in a 3 way configuration. This installation guide does a nice job describing the wiring configuration for either setup. Once installed you can program the switch via the buttons on the front or you can download and use the free app on your mobile phone. I recommend using the application. It is easier to setup the device and get it attached to your network.
The instructions included with the packaging were a bit vague regarding the WiFi set up but the help included in the application was very good and walked me right through the install. Other than that minor issue the install was quick and easy. About 15 minutes to remove the old switch and install the new one. Then about 10 minutes to set up the switch and get it attached to my WiFi network.

This smart timer is very easy to install and program. However, If you do not feel comfortable working with electricity please hire an electrician to install it. I installed this Wi-Fi enabled 7- day programmable timer in about 30 minutes including the time it took to remove the existing manual switch. Wi-Fi set up and Alexa set up took additional 15 to 20 minutes because I had to search for the information on the website and also had to call the tech support. During programming you set up time, date, your location Latitude and Longitude (included in the back of the information booklet) etc. Once programmed and set up it automatically turns my front door porch lights ON at dawn and OFF at dusk. You have several options such as random operation, turn on for few hours rather than all night etc. Simply download the "Ascend Intermatic" App on your smart phone to remotely operate this timer. To use it with Alexa simply go to the Alexa App and download two skills as described in the brochure. I love this product for its' simplicity and many features. You will love the convenience and safety it offers as lighted areas deter intruders.

This Smart in wall timer works very well. I installed it my self with out much trouble, the installation instructions are clear , also you can go to their website and you can get more explicit instructions. If you are not familiar with electrical installation you should hire an electrician. The only problem I had was that the software didn't work well with my phone. I was not able to input the code they sent me. I installed the software on an android tablet and I was able to complete the setup. I then opened the app on the phone and it worked flawlessly. The app sets it up so you can remotely control the timer thru the Internet, you can also use Alexa to control it. Programming a schedule is very simple. The wireless signal is strong so you can connect to your router even if its on the other side of your home. Great addition to my home.

I received my Intermatic Ascend smart wall timer today, I like it because of the automatic dusk to dawn feature. You can set it up to go on and off for a seven-day schedule. this timer will keep the correct time and correct dusk to dawn for the region you live in, in the manual it gives the latitude/longitude for your area and connects to your Wi-Fi which allows it to set the correct times for the schedules. It's easy to set and it has a built-in backup battery to keep your settings. I downloaded the ascend app.to my phone which makes it even easier to set up. You can also call a customer support to get help if you need it. It also will hook up to Alexa, I have Google, so I could not try that feature.
This Product is awesome! And should be stocked in the Stores and not only available on-line.

I purchased one of these to test it how it would integrate with my WiFi, etc. I needed two of these but the second purchase was contingent upon the results of the first unit.
My criteria: battery backup, WiFi and static IP assignable. This timer net all the criteria and had one added feature -on/off automatically set by time zone, actually longitude and latitude. Those parameters needed a little adjustment but once set worked like a champ!
I was and am currently very happy with the timer that I ordered a second, installed and added that device to the Ascend app.
I'm completely happy with the Ascend timer product and software. I wish they were a little less expensive but I guess you get what you pay for. If I needed a third timer I would purchase the same product again and would recommend this timer to anyone and everyone that was in the market for a timer.
