Switch System Reference Manual 7-9
The auto delay period cannot be adjusted by the user. It is a fixed delay for the selected
function and range (
Table 8-1 ).
klqb
When scanning, the auto delay times in Table 8-1 are valid for all control
sources (Immediate, External, Timer, Manual, or Bus).
With manual delay selected, the user can set the delay period from 0 seconds to 99 hours,
99 minutes, 99.999 seconds. However, if you set a delay shorter than the corresponding
auto delay period, measurement uncertainty increases (noisy and/or unsettled readings
may result).
klqb
Keep in mind that if the timer control source is selected, the Delay period is only
in effect for the first pass through the loop.
Ratio/Chan Average Delay
— With ratio or channel average enabled, a delay is typically
used to keep the channel relays from cycling too fast. The default delay period is 0.5 sec-
onds but can be set from 0 to 999999.999 seconds using remote programming (see
Section 5 for details). Ratio and channel average are covered in Section 5 .
klqb
The Ratio/Chan Average Delay is in addition to the Timer or Delay (Auto or
Manual). That is, it occurs after the Timer interval or Delay period elapses.
Device action
The channel measurement process is performed at this block. If repeat filter is enabled, the
filter process is also performed.
Reading count
klqb
For both STEP and SCAN, the reading count specifies the number of readings to
store in the buffer.
STEP operation
— The reading count specifies the number of channels to scan. This can
be equal to, less than, or greater than the number of channels in the scan list. The last
scanned channel remains closed. If you start the scan again, it will start at the next
channel.
If the reading count is set to infinity (INF), the scan will continuously repeat until you
stop it.
klqb
One counter is used for STEP operation. As shown in Figure 7-1 , reading count
sets the Trigger Counter.
