1. RTE-B1: Do not apply voltage to terminals #2, #5 & #8.

2. IDEC sockets are as follows: RTE-P1: SR2P-06* pin type socket,
RTE-B1: SR3B-05* blade type socket, (*-may be followed by suffix
letter A,B,C or U).

A: ON-Delay 1 (power start)
Set timer for desired delay, apply power to coil. Contacts transfer after preset time has elapsed, and
remain in transferred position until timer is reset. Reset occurs with removal of power.

C: Cycle 1 (power start, OFF first)
Set timer for desired delay, apply power to coil. First transfer of contacts occurs after preset delay has
elapsed, after the next elapse of preset delay contacts return to original position. The timer now cycles
between on and off as long as power is applied (duty ratio 1:1).
