Menu FUNCTION
4.2 Time Delay Menu
Principle
When the machine process management (motor start and stop) is not synchronized with the
controller logical inputs remote control (external switches Reg and B), some regulation troubles
can appear. The synchronizing problems can be solved with the time delay options available in
the Controller functions.
How it works
Starting time delay: Entering a time delay value (tens of milliseconds), means that the system
will wait for that delay before the controller starts the actual calculation (after switching Reg
from open to closed position).
Stopping time delay: Entering a time delay value (tens of milliseconds), means that the
system will wait for that delay before the controller stops the actual calculation (after switching
Reg from closed to open position).
The same effect will be applied on the delay to switch from Regulation mode to Hold mode
Process
It is usually necessary to manage the switches Reg and B simultaneously.
