A timer that is supposed to be continuously running (to keep track of
time). Will it continue to run when shorted by the manual switch?

a buddy has a office building with a long hall. he leaves just a few
lights on for security, has a timer on all the rest that goes off
during non peak hours and motion detectors to trip all lights on during
activity, they turn off after 15 minutes

cut his electric bill nicely
