4-12 Convey Dump Delay Setting
After the convey timer times out, the PLC will start a dump delay before allowing the convey
cycle to start again. The dump delay time is adjusted by jumper inputs into the PLC. The yellow
jumpers are wired into yellow terminal blocks located on the sub-panel. For example, a ten (10)
second dump delay would have a yellow jumper wired from a number four terminal to number
33 (PLC I/18) terminal. Terminals number 31 and 32 would have no jumpers. Dump delay time
is the same for both convey stations.
