4.8 Timers Setup Menu
This menu allows you to access the four interval timers provided by the
PM296/RPM096
which can trigger setpoints on a user-defined time interval basis.
This is useful for continuous data logging at specified time intervals in order to
produce trend and load profile graphs.
Each timer has a time interval range up to 9999 seconds at a one-second resolution and
runs independently. The timer accuracy is about
±0.05 sec. To use a timer as the trigger for
a setpoint, simply select one of timers as a trigger when defining the setpoint, and then
specify for the selected timer a non-zero time interval at which you want the periodic action
(for example, a data log) to be made. To stop a timer, set the time interval to zero. Each
timer can be used to trigger multiple setpoints, for example, if you need multiple data logs at
the same time.
