The CLMD16 provides eight instances of a timer delay function.

The Timer Delay function provides the Switching Application the ability to postpone the activation of

load output channels upon receiving channel activation commands up to 65,535 seconds for each.

This is not to be confused with the Soft Start function as the timer delay function does not contribute

to the load PWM output.

Each timer can be configured to one of the following modes:

• ON Delay – When the input signal is applied, the output is delayed by the delay period

• OFF Delay – When the input signal is removed, the output is delayed by the delay period

• No Delay – the output signal is a replica of the input signal

Each timer has the following input signals:

• Input – the signal whose delayed version will be produced on the output

Each timer has the following output signals:

• Timer Output – the delayed version of the Input signal

Each timer has the following programmable parameters:

• DelayPeriod – the amount of time by which to delay the appropriate edges of the input

signal to produce the output signal.

If the timer is configured in ON Delay mode and the input signal is asserted high for less than the

DelayPeriod time before being asserted low again, the output signal will remain asserted low

Conversely, if the timer is configured in OFF Delay mode and the input signal is asserted low for

less than the DelayPeriod time before being asserted high again, the output signal will remain

asserted high.

The output signals from the timer delay elements are numbered 1 through 8

The CLMD16 provides eight instances of a flash function.

The Flash function provides the Switching Application the ability to turn an output on and off at set

frequencies.

This function can be used to generate unique visual error codes using a load output channel

connected to an LED such as Indication of a network or power supply low voltage state. Or to flash

a mast clearance strobe, Pulse an intermittent bilge pump, or for use with intermittent ON ventilation

systems.
