Setting aids
The period of the flashing of the green LED 1 when set for a timing
interval is 1 s
±
4%,
which can therefore be used as a setting aid.
This is particularly useful in the lower time setting range and for
long delay times because the multiplication factors between the
individual time ranges are exact.
Example:
Delay time to be set: 40 min.
Using the fine setting, this delay time can be set within the setting
range 3 ... 300 min. However, in this case it takes a long time to
check the time and requires several operational sequences in
realtime. To speed up the setting process, the setting range will
be switched to 0.03 ... 3 min. In this case, the required value
corresponds to a delay time 0.4 min (= 24 s). The timing interval
is triggered and the potentiometer is set to 24 flashing periods of
the yellow LED 2. The device is then set back to the setting
range 3 ... 300 min and the setting process is completed.
Time operation interruption/time addition
For the functions AV, EW, IE, BI, the timing interval can be
interrupted at any time by activating B1 (+) and by removing the
control voltage continued again (time addition).
Control input B1
The functions RV, IF, AW, AV/RV can be controlled using the
control input B1 (+) with potential against terminal A2. The
auxiliary voltage of terminal A1 can be used for this purpose, as
well as any other voltage within the range 12 ... 240 V AC/DC.
The operation of parallel loads (e.g. contactors) from B1 (+) to
A2 is also permissible.
If voltage is simultaneously applied to the control input B1 (+)
and A1 for the IF function, this triggers an output pulse with the
set time interval t
1

Control S1
Control S2
Contact S1
For the functions: response delay,
passing make contact function,
pulse generator delayed,
clock generator – (start with pulse) –
the timing interval is triggered by
closing the switching contact S1.
Control contact S2
The functions: off-delay,
pulse shape, passing break contact
function,
response and off-delay are triggered
by continuous power supply over
the control contact S2 between A1
and B1 (+).
