Timer Function

Digital inputs and outputs control the timer function and are configured
with parameters A051-A054 [Digital Inx Sel] set to 18 “Timer Start” and
20 “Reset Timer”.

Digital outputs (relay and opto type) define a preset level and indicate
when the level is reached. Level parameters A056 [Relay Out Level],
A059 [Opto Out1 Level] and A062 [Opto Out2 Level] are used to set the
desired time in seconds.

Parameters A055 [Relay Out Sel], A058 [Opto Out1 Sel] and A061
[Opto Out2 Sel] are set to option 16 “Timer Out” and causes the output
to change state when the preset level is reached.

Example

Drive starts up and accelerates to 30 Hz.

After 30Hz has been maintained for 20 seconds, a 4-20mA analog
input becomes the reference signal for speed control.

The timer function is used to select a preset speed with a 20 second
run time that overrides the speed reference while the digital input is
active.

Parameters are set to the following options:

P038 [Speed Reference] = 3 “4-20mA Input”

A051 [Digital In1 Sel] = 4 “Preset Freq”

A052 [Digital In2 Sel] = 18 “Timer Start”

A055 [Relay Out Sel] = 16 “Timer Out”

A056 [Relay Out Level] = 20.0 Secs

A071 [Preset Freq 1] = 30.0 Hz

The control terminal block is wired such that a start command will
also trigger the timer start.

The relay output is wired to I/O Terminal 05 (Digital Input 1) so that
it forces the input on when the timer starts.

After the timer is complete, the output is turned off releasing the
preset speed command. The drive defaults to following the analog
input reference as programmed.
