Another option would be to get an electronic timer like the Intermatic P1353 that has 3 circuits on it that you could program to cut on and off at different times. For example, you could have one circuit that controls the pump and turns the pump on, then the second circuit would turn on the booster pump at a set time after the filter pump had come on and then the heater could be set to also run at a preset time after the pump circuit was activated. Since the pump, booster and heater are all 220, it's a straight forward hookup with everything in one timer box.
The lights, as stated before, would be on a separate circuit (110) and have its own timer or photosensitive eye set in line.
Testimonial: "I read the P1353ME manual and it has the capability of exactly what I'd like to do. Thanks. "

YOU CAN LOOK THREW THE LITTLE WINDOW TO SEE THE GEARS TURNING ON THE CLOCK .. IF NOT ..Intermatic Timer Motor WG1573 / WG1573-5 clock POOL FIX ON EBAY
TO INSTALL THIS MOTOR REMOVE SCREW ON LEFT AND JUST BACK SCREW ON RIGHT A FEW TURNS, TIMER WILL ROCK UP OUT OF BASE THIS WAY . UN-HOOK WIRES ONE AT A TIME AND INSTALL WIRES FROM NEW MOTOR ONE AT A TIME.. THESE TWO WHITE WIRES GO TO LINE 1 AND 2 THESE ARE THE WIRES THAT GO TO THE 220 VOLT BREAKER ... NEED MORE HELP JUST GIVE ME A BUZZ. .. VOTE PLEASE THANKS... JAY

I have been testing the 0192773, and other timers, for wire and program difficulties.
Good news: your timer is wired correctly. This timer will not operated lights with incorrect wiring.
programming steps are long, but same as other programmable timers.
The 0192773 is a 7-day or sunrise/sunset timer
1) Most programmable timers will not 'work as expected' if there is a conflict in programming.
They suggest you make a schedule of times before programming
2) One of the things this timer offers are individual days -or- groups of days > for example weekend only -or- weekdays only -or- all days of week -plus- individual days. For me, it was a bit confusing keeping that straight while programming
3) Each Program has ON time and OFF time
So Program1 ON has to be set same days as Program1 OFF
4) The other difficulty was how fast the display shifted back to current time when I was programming. If I looked at the instructions for a moment, my display would change before I could catch up. So it's possible that an ON or OFF time could be missed easily.
5) Finally, if you are using the timer as a sunrise/sunset, you need to enter Sunrise or Sunset with program1 ON and program1 OFF
I think the problem is in your programs:
You can use paperclip and hold in reset button for a few seconds and start over
Or
You can press PROG button and and re-check and re-set each program.
By the way, when setting current time, I noticed the timer let you chose a year up to the year 2099. I thought that was an optimistic outlook for both operator and timer.

These timers are frustrating sometimes, fortunately this timer can be unplugged to set programs under good lighting.
When I have problems, I set it down for a while and then go back to it later.
Right now I own 25-30 different Intermatic, Woods, GE, Utilitec timers for testing and programming difficulties. Each one offers different points that are confusing.
Some new timers are simply defective. One guy today had 2 defective Woods timers, which made me suspect electric line needs line analysis. You might try your timer in another plug, for example indoor plug in another part of house to double check line is not interfering with timer electronics.
Reading HB88RC manual, there is not Dusk-dawn option, and programming steps are pretty straightforward compared with other timers.
This leads me to believe there is some small thing missed or line is bad, or timer is defective.
Return it if it's defective.
Here are some trip-up points, and they may not apply to you.
1) Current day has to be set. Hold clock button down while setting current time.
2) When programming, each event requires ON time and OFF time. For example event1 ON has to be set and then event1 OFF has to be set. Then set event2 ON and then event2 OFF.
3) When programming, check screen carefully to make sure 1ON appears, and then 1OFF appears in screen exactly like Fig1 and Fig3 shows.
Now I frequently e-mail Intermatic asking for manual clarification, and they e-mail back ... sometimes their manuals are a little bit off here and there. But this manual looks clean and matches what I see in other timers.
4) Each ON time requires OFF time for same choice of days. For example ON 7pm Tuesday and OFF 9pm All-days-of-week will not work correctly.
5) ON 7pm Tuesday and OFF 7pm Tuesday will not work.
6) Conflicts in programming cause some timers to skip programming: For example event1 says ON
at 7 pm Tuesday and OFF 9pm Tuesday, but event2 says opposite.
7) Since manual override works correctly, we know Load is functioning, and we know plugs on timer are working. Timer load can be lighting or pumps or heaters, but manual does not specifically say florescent. So timer MIGHT not work for compact florescent bulbs. If you have CFL bulb, try another type of Load: for example incandescent table lamp.
And that's everything I know, like Bubba Gump shrimp.
