TIME DELAYS

Refer to the Figure 4 - 2 to see the organization
of the Setup Menu. There are two (2) more
variables that can be adjusted from the Setup
Menu. These are the AlarmDly and Ret. Dly,
which are the time delays associated with the
detecting of an alarm and the clearing of an
alarm.
These delays specify the time between the
detection of a change in the alarm state and the
operating of the relay. When an alarm is
detected the time delay will be the time that the
alarm condition must exist before the relay is de-
activated. When a return-to-normal condition is
detected the time delay will be the time the
condition must exist before the relay is activated.
The delays can be turned "off" by setting the
delay to "00" and the active delay times are 1 to
60 seconds. This allows either or both delays to
be turned "Off" and the delay times to be
adjusted independently.
