Pulse Generator; Random On/Off Delay - Siemens SIMATIC RTU3030C Operating Instructions Manual

5.6.5

Pulse generator

Function
A regularly clocked pulse is output at the output. The cycle length is specified for the duration
of the 0 and 1 signal using the function parameters.

Random on/off delay

Function
When there is an edge change 0 → 1 at the "Trigger" input, the random time of the On delay
is started (within the configured limits). After the On delay has elapsed, the output is set to 1.
If "Trigger" changes back to 0 before the On delay has elapsed, the delay time is stopped
and the output remains set to 0.
When there is an edge change 1 → 0 at the "Trigger" input, the random time of the Off delay
is started (within the configured limits). After the Off delay has elapsed, the output is set to 0.
If "Trigger" changes back to 1 before the Off delay has elapsed, the output is set to 0. At the
same time the running of the On delay is restarted and the Off delay is stopped.
When there is an edge change 0 → 1 at the input "Reset" the On delay is suppressed and
the output remains set to 0.
For the diagram, refer to On / Off delay.
