The DIP switch config for the steady 3 min cycle timer is, from left to right (Up = ON): up, down, up, down, down, up, down, up. This sets pins 1, 3, 6 and 8 high, and 2,4,5,and 7 low (the DIP switch numbers are backwards in reference to the IC pins). This equates to a RC time constant of 165.  
The stock DIP switch config for the steady 3 min cycle timer is, from left to right (Up = ON): up, down, up, down, down, up, down, up. This sets pins 1, 3, 6 and 8 high, and 2,4,5,and 7 low (the DIP switch numbers are backwards in reference to the IC pins). This equates to a RC time constant of 165.  




Pin 13 of the IC is the RC input which is fed by a 1.1MOhm resistor and a 1uF 35v tantalum capacitor. Cross referencing those values in the datasheet chart, we get a RC timebase of 1Hz. The confusing part is that with these figures, we get a cycle time of 165 seconds, not 180 as 3 minutes would work out to. I will have to try setting switches 8, 6, 5 and 4 high which should equal exactly 180s.
Pin 13 of the IC is the RC input which is fed by a 1.1MOhm resistor and a 1uF 35v tantalum capacitor. Cross referencing those values in the datasheet chart, we get a RC timebase of ~1Hz, though measuring via scope it shows the period to be 0.66Hz (1.5sec/cycle exactly). The confusing part is that with these figures, we get a cycle time of ~110 seconds, not 180. Still not super clear how this works.
 
At low values it seems to be pretty accurate (eg. 5 sec), but with my test of "180s" (8, 6, 5 and 4 high) yielded approximately 3m18s (almost 200s). Timing the stock setting gets 2m57s, or 177s.
