Timing Mode:
Delay on operate timing cycle begins upon application of input power. The relay contacts
transfer at the end of the delay period and will remain transferred until input voltage is
removed. Reset occurs when input voltage is removed.

Timing Specifications:
Standard Timing: The SWPDC has 20 overlapping timing ranges covering 0.25 secs. to
160 hours. Timing is user selectable by means of a 5 position binary coded Dip Switch
and a knob adjustable potentiometer allowing the time delay within the selected timing
range to be set precisely.
Timing Adjustment: 5 position binary Dip Switch coded as follows:
