A bit confused maybe, but not damaged or harmed in any way
Failing timers is something everyone needs to look out for, even when using a contactor relay to "switch" your ballast, (the cheaper "segmental" timers still fail).
But now you got it sussed, set it up (again) and put the poor old thing back into the same photo-period you had your lights set to, and in a couple of days all will be fine.
As soon as possible I would recommend getting a contactor, to stop the terminals in your "new timer" welding up and causing this problem in the future!
