5.6.7 Process Timer Control Mode (F030 through F039):
The following special functions allow the
TE Series
starter to operate
automatically from a Process Control Timer using an internal Real Time
Clock.
Only brief descriptions of the functions are provided here.
REFER TO APPENDIX 4
at the end of this manual
f
or detailed
operations and instructions.
NOTE:
These functions may interact with the Coast Down Lockout (F048),
Starts-per-Hour Lockout (F049), Minimum Time Between Starts
(F050), Auto-Reset (F052 and 53) and Restart Delay Time (F028)
functions if enabled. Be sure to review and understand settings for
these functions before using the Process Timer.
F030 = Process Control Timer Selection
Factory Setting = 0 (Disabled)
Range = 0, 1, 2
This function enables a Process Control Timer, which may be
used alone or in conjunction with the Time Clock Controller
feature (F032-F039). This timer offers two operating modes,
selected by entering 1 or 2 into the function parameter:
Setting 1 = Minimum (Batch) Run Timer:
After a Start
Command, the starter runs until the batch timer expires. If
stopped and restarted it will complete that batch time sequence.
Setting 2 = Permissive Run Timer
. After a Start Event from
the TCC, the starter can be started and stopped as necessary,
until the timer expires.
F031 = Process Timer Value
Factory Setting = 1
Range = 1 – 9999 minutes
This function loads a value into the Process Timer above. When
initialized, the value counts down towards 0.
NOTE:
The above Process Control Timer in F030 – F031 works in
conjunction with the Time Clock Controller in F032 – F039. When
the TCC is set to One-Shot (F032 = 0), this timer will activate
whenever a Start Command is given. When F032 = any other
setting, this timer activates according to that schedule.
