Give us the model number so we can see what you're talking about. Tell us what link you have tried, and how the instructions seem to be different.

Display showing no-op is sometimes associated with defective timer, bad battery. Resetting timer will clear memories and restore functionality in some cases.

Here are the "easy" set instructions:

Here are the full set of instructions:

The ST01C programming is long and hard to understand
Intermatic has posted a EZ-version for programming
http://www.intermatic.com/products/timers/consumer%20indoor%20timers/in-wall%20timers/st01c.aspx

http://waterheatertimer.org/ST01C-program.html

First of all, you have to set current date on all brands of programmable timers before programming. On some timers, the wiring has to be correct before the timer will let you program.
If you have the ST01C, push the reset button with a paper clip until time flashes to 12:00, and then start over

When I have a problem with a timer, I go back to the manual and start writing out the instructions.
If you can write the instructions, then they usually make better sense >>> and then you wonder who wrote the manual.

Finally, the ST01C, and most digital timers, come with a 1-year limited warranty >> timers go bad.

I Googled in Diehl digital timer and located a website that had the exact timer I have. Included in the list of information was a manual with instructions on setting the timer. I downloaded the instructions and set the timer. Exactly what I needed.

If it has a digital timer, make sure it is set to auto and not manual, as oven will not heat if it is on auto.
If it is a anolgue timer ,then it should be showing a hand symbol,if it is not, then turn knob or dial until it does.
If these settings are o/k, then could be a faulty element.
Plz rate my solution.
Thanks.
