Programming Pickup and Dropout Timers

To program logic timer settings, use the Settings Explorer within BESTCOMSPlus to open the
BESTlogicPlus Programmable Logic/Logic Timers tree branch. Enter a Name label that you want to
appear on the timer logic block. The Time Delay value range is 0 to 250 hours in 1 hour increments, 0 to
250 minutes in 1 minute increments, or 0 to 1,800 seconds in 0.1 second increments.

Next, open the Components tab inside the BESTlogicPlus window and drag a timer onto the program
grid. Right click on the timer to select the timer you want to use that was previously set on the Logic
Timers tree branch. The Logic Timer Properties Dialog Box will appear. Select the timer you want to use.

Pickup and dropout logic timer logic blocks are shown in Figure 147. Timing accuracy is

±15 milliseconds.
