1. A programmable light timer for implementing a timing pattern, the programmable light timer comprising:
- a memory storing at least one timing pattern, the at least one timing pattern having one or more on/off settings for a time period; and
a wireless communication circuit configured to receive, using a wireless communication protocol, the at least one timing pattern selected on a user interface of a wireless device having a corresponding wireless communication circuit, the user interface enabling the selection of the at least one timing pattern;
wherein the user interface is configured to receive a security code enabling the downloading of the timing pattern to the memory using the wireless communication protocol.

Abstract
A programmable light timer for implementing a timing pattern is described. The programmable light timer comprises a memory storing a plurality of timing patterns, each timing pattern being associated with a unique timing pattern code and having one or more on/off settings for a time period; and a user interface enabling the selection of a timing pattern code associated with a timing pattern of the plurality of timing patterns.
