ABSTRACT:
The disclosed apparatus operates a load in one mode in response to one cyclically occurring event and in a second mode at a specified time in the cycle regardless of the phase of the one event in the cycle. According to a specific embodiment, the apparatus turns on lights at sunset and turns them off at a later nighttime hour, preferably the same hour each night. A generator stores signals in an accumulating memory at one rate during daylight hours and at a faster rate, preferably twice the daylight rate, during nighttime hours. When the memory content reaches a preset level during the night, it turns off the switch that had turned on the lights at sunset and empties itself of storage until sunrise.
