Abstract
A timer device, which has at least a load control function, includes a counter, circuitry for setting the counter, a display and a controller. Generally, the display displays a value of the counter. The controller causes the display to flash while the load is being operated, but keeps the display continuous when the setting circuitry is operated even if the load is being operated. This aids in the setting process.
