Description
The Model 83 Timer is available in single or dual preset models. The 83 Timer features a 7 segment, 2 lines by 6-digit backlit LCD display. The
main display line is red and shows the timer value. The smaller secondary display line is green and can be used to view the preset values or
output time values.
The 83 Timer can be configured for a variety of different operating modes to meet most timing application requirements. Twelve timing ranges are
available from thousands of a second to hours and minutes. Decimal points are used to separate the time units (hours, minutes, seconds). Timing
can be cumulative or can reset and start upon each power cycle. “on delay” or “off delay”, “single shot”, “repetitive auto cycling” modes are all
supported.
The 83 Timer can also be configured to continue or stop timing upon reaching preset. The display can be programmed to stop at the preset value
(reset to zero mode) or zero (reset to preset mode), or automatically reset to zero or preset and hold. Once stopped, the timer can be restarted
by manually resetting it, or it can be programmed to restart when power is reapplied. The 83 Timer has a run/stop input, 3 programmable user
inputs, and a programmable front panel function key. The run/stop and user inputs can be configured as sinking (active low) or sourcing (active
high) inputs via a single plug jumper. The user inputs and the front panel function key can be configured to provide a variety of functions.
Four front panel push-buttons are used for ease of programming the operating modes and data values, changing the viewed display, and
performing user programmable functions, e.g. reset, etc. The 83 Timer can be configured for one of two numeric data entry methods digit or
automatic scrolling.
The dual preset models are available with solid-state or relay outputs. The single preset model has a solid-state and relay output in parallel. All
solid-state outputs are available in a choice of NPN current sinking or PNP current sourcing, open- collector transistor outputs. All relay output
boards are field replaceable.
RS485 communications - optional serial communication capability allows for interrogation and modification of the preset, and timer values.
Construction- The unit is made of lightweight, high impact plastic with a textured front panel and a clear display window. The front panel meets
NEMA4X/IP65 specifications when properly installed. Multiple units can be stacked horizontally or vertically. SMT, extensive testing, plus high
immunity to noise interference make the 83 Timer extremely reliable in industrial environments.
