Special functions (windows 35, 36 and 65)

Special functions are separate relays for overload and underload alarm/stop, start
attempts and a reverse function with start attempts:

Window 65 = 0, Normal M20

Window 65 = 1, Separate relays for overload and underload alarm (DLM)

Window 65 = 2, Reverse function

Fig. 14 Window 65 and relay functions

In all three cases the number of start attempts after a main alarm may be set in
window 36. The pause time between start attempts may be set in window 35.
This time is also used as the time to run the motor in the reverse direction when
window 65=2.

The reverse function can be used to reverse e.g. a screw conveyor or pump when
a “jam” occurs. Reversing the motor may remove the blockage. Should one
reverse cycle not be enough to release the material, the M20 will repeat this
operation up to a maximum of 5 cycles (window 36, 0-5 start attempts). Relay
R1 = forward, relay R2 = reverse.

The analogue output will go to its maximum e.g. 20 mA when the number of
allowed start attempts has elapsed.

Resetting an alarm

A reset will cause the start attempt counter to be reset (new start attempts may
be performed).

NOTE: For special handling of analogue output in reverse mode, see below.
