Enable timer
Status Timer Output, indication of the output
Trigger input = Input signal for starting the
timer
Status Inverse Timer Output, indication of the

Duty factor = Relation between input and
output signal
Simple description of the function:
Independent time elements can switch time sequences between functions. An input status triggers a
time laps of the timer function (= impulse time), which runs irrespective of the time of day. The im-
pulse time can be set up to 90 seconds in increments of seconds in addition to various stages of up to
48 hours.
Special features:
The set impulse time can be varied from 0-100 percent via the input "DUTY FACTOR." The
impulse time can thus be varied via signals and computer values. To make it an adjustable
value in the menu,
User
has to be entered as "source".
Use the command MODE to choose between six basic functions.
If enable = OFF, then both output variables are set to OFF.

DUTY FAC.: 100 %
100% of 8 seconds = 8 seconds!
MAN.: TIMER START
The timer can be launched using the scroll wheel and stopped
before it has expired.
