1. GENERAL PROVISIONS
1.1. BASIC FUNCTIONS
- microprocessor controlled.
- simple change-over between sequential and combination timer.
- 7-segment LED indications.
- selectable 3 time ranges (SEC:MSEC, MIN:SEC, HRS:MIN)
- cascade connection of several devices for extended total number of channels.
- memorization of program and device mode after switching off and program operation restart
from point of stoppage.
- inputs for timer start and pause control.
- fast resetting.
- copy of settings.
- program can be executed only one time or/and cyclic operation possible.
- RS-232 communication port for programming and possibility of operation through PC/ DCS
(free PC software).

1. Indicator for selected channel.
2. COMBINATION
Button of selection of combination DLY/ON of active channel in case of timer operation in
combination mode.
3. RELAY
Button of selection of channel for programming or channel information displaying.

4. S1/S2
Inputs of timer start for program execution. For start of program processing inputs S1 and S2
should be closed for 150 milliseconds. Switch RUN/PROG should be in position RUN.
5. C1/C2
Inputs of looping execution of program. If inputs C1 and C2 are closed, the program is executed
only one time. Otherwise, the program would be in cyclic mode.
6. O1/O2
Outputs of cascade connections of devices. After completion of execution of program outputs O1
and O2 are closed for 200 milliseconds.
7. I1/I2
Inputs of pause control. Zero potential between I1 and I2 suspends the program execution. After
un-shorting between I1 and I2, the execution of program is continued from the suspension time.
8. DLY/ON
Button of selection of time setting of open (DLY) or closed (ON) contacts of active channel
output.
9. A1/A2
Power inputs according to technical specifications.
10. RANGE
Button for selection of range of time programming DLY/ON according to the Table 1.2:
Table 1.2
from 1 minute to 99 hours 59 minutes
from 1 second to 99 minutes 59 seconds
from 100 millisecond to 999.9 seconds
11. INDIVID/COPY ALL
When the switch is in position INDIVID, the program will be executed for every channel
independently as it have programmed. If switch is in position COPY, during execution of the
program the values of times DLY and ON for every channel will be used from first channel.
12. RESTR/HOLD
Selection of device behavior in case of absence of external power. If the switch is in position
RESTR, the program will restart from the very beginning after restoration of power supply. If it
is in position HOLD, the timer settings at the moment of emergency switching will be stored in
nonvolatile memory and the program will be restarted after restoration of power supply.
13. RUN/PROG
The selection of PROGRAM or RUN timer mode.
