TIMER APPLICATION EXAMPLES

This section illustrates two common applications for
the BA577E-SS when configured as a Timer.

6.1

Measuring the time that a contact is 
closed.

In this example a BA577E-SS is required to display
the time that a process area contact is closed.  The
display is required in hours and minutes and is to be
reset to zero by an external push button, not by the
instrument front panel push buttons.   The operator is
required to zero the grand total by operating the 

)

+  

*

  buttons simultaneously.       No security codes

are required to protect  access to the configuration
menu or to the grand total reset.     When power is
restored after a supply interruption the Timer is to
resume   normal   operation   without   manual
intervention.

Figure 11 shows BA577E-SS wiring for this example.
