Time response
Parameter T
At some of the SFs it is possible to configure a time value T.
When you preset this time, note that your input values are
based on the timebase set:
Timebase
B1 +
T
=04:10h
Setting a time T of 250 minutes:
Unit in hours h:
04:00 hours
240 minutes
00:10 hours
+10 minutes
=
250 minutes
Note
Always specify a time T in
≥
0.02 s. The time T is not defined for T
< 0.02 s.
Accuracy of T
Because of slight tolerances in the characteristics of
electronic components, the set time T may deviate. IDEC
SmartRelay has a maximum tolerance of ± 0.02%.
When 0.02% of the time T is smaller than 0.02 seconds, the
maximum deviation is 0.02 seconds.
Example:
The maximum tolerance per hour (3600 seconds) is ±0.02%,
which is proportional to ± 0.72 seconds.
The maximum tolerance per minute (60 seconds) is ± 0.02
seconds.
Accuracy of the timer (Seven-day/Twelve-month time switch)
To prevent timing inaccuracy of the real-time clock in C ver-
sions caused by this deviation, the timer value is continuous-
ly compared with a high-precision timebase and corrected.
The resultant maximum timing inaccuracy is ± 5 s/day.
