(5) Retentive timer
This timer measures the period of time during which the coil is on. The time increment is set in the same manner
as the corresponding low- or high-speed timer.
• Low-speed retentive timer: Low-speed timer
• High-speed retentive timer: High-speed timer
The timer starts time measurement when its coil is turned on, and when it times out, the contact is turned on.
Even if the timer's coil is turned off, the current value and the on/off status of the contact are retained. When the
coil is turned on again, the measurement restarts from the retained current value. The current value and the
contact off status can be cleared with the RST ST
