Timers Timing Diagrams Overview Cycle 2 (signal start, OFF first) When voltage is applied to the coil, the contacts remain in the off state and the set time begins. At the end of the set time, the contacts transfer to the on state and remain in the on state until the set time elapses. The timer cycles between the two states until power is removed from the coil. Removing the coil voltage resets the timer. The set time for both the on state and the off state is the same. Applicable models: GT3A-1, -2, -3 and RTE-P(B)1. Voltage is applied to the coil at all times. When a start signal is supplied,...

When a maintained start signal is supplied, the contacts immediately transfer to the on state and the set time begins. When the set time has elapsed, the contacts transfer to the off state. The contacts remain in the off state until the start signal is removed. The contacts transfer back to the on state and remain in the on state for the set time. When the set time has elapsed, the contacts transfer to the off state and remain in the...

Timers Timing Diagrams Overview Recycler Outputs (power start) When voltage is applied to the coil, both contacts remain in the OFF state and the set time, T1, begins. When T1 has elapsed, output 1 comes on and T2 begins. When T2 has elapsed, output 2 comes on. Both outputs remain on until power is removed from the coil. Applicable model: GT3W-A. When voltage is applied to the coil, both contacts remain in the off state and time T1 begins. When T1 has elapsed, both contacts transfer to the ON state and T2 begins. When T2 has elapsed, both contacts transfer back to the OFF state and T1 begins...
