Example:
Problem:
The AC drive is in a warehouse and controls air conditioning. It must operate between 7 am
and 5 pm on weekdays and between 9 am and 1 pm on weekends. It is also necessary for the
drive to operate outside these hours, if there are personnel in the building. The drive must
continue to operate 30 minutes after the personnel has left.
Solution:
Set 2 intervals, 1 for weekdays and 1 for weekends. A timer is also necessary to activate the
process outside the set hours. See the configuration below.
Interval 1

P3.12.1.2: OFF Time: 17:00:00
P3.12.1.3: Days: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
