As long as the power doesn't fail -- in which case the unit forgets what day and time it is -- it will switch automatically at the correct times.

A Sine should always be run on a UPS, and the power-up action sequence needs to be enabled and programmed to call someone who knows how to reset the clock and calendar if an extended power outage runs down the UPS.
