Intermatic Incorporated has announced its new Ascend™ 7-Day In-Wall Programmable Timer, a next-generation control that helps contractors save 5-15 minutes on each installation while delivering tech-forward features to consumers.
Available in Smart/Wi-Fi (STW700W) and Standard (ST700W) configurations, Ascend makes it easy to automate routine lighting schedules, improve security and boost energy efficiency in residential and light commercial applications.
The flagship Ascend Smart leverages four unique communication options – Peer-to-Peer (Access Point), Wi-Fi, Remote Access (Cloud) and Voice – to speed up installations and provide a seamless transition from initial setup to everyday use.
Ascend Smart enables installers and homeowners to create and update schedules on the fly using any Apple® or Android® device via the Ascend Smart Timer app. Once onboarded, homeowners can also use voice commands to control their Ascend Smart through integration with Amazon Alexa.
Ideal for home lighting and light motor applications, both Ascend configurations include a large backlit LCD and pre-programmed templates, as well as Astronomic dusk-to-dawn settings and automatic Daylight Saving Time adjustment. A sleek, modern design helps Ascend fit any home décor.
