Eagle Signal B506 User manual

1
Introduction
Your Eagle-Signal brand B506 1/16 DIN timer is a unique instrument specifically
designed for handling repetitive cyclical operations. This unit is highly flexible and
can be field configured to operate in a number of different fashions. Unique features
include the ability to set two separate times for On and Off operations, which can
even be in different time bases, or input a time base with a percentage value. A
batch count function keeps track of the number of completed cycles and can stop
operation after the preset has been reached.
Inside this manual you will find complete information on the Control mode, which
deals with viewing and changing the available setpoints, and Program Mode which is
used to configure the basic operation of the timer, as well as set a variety of other
useful features.
Also found in this manual are detailed timing diagrams and descriptions of the
available operating functions to aid you in determining how to properly configure the
unit to solve your application.
Additionally included are key product
specifications, warranty procedures and
ordering information should you require
additional units or accessories.
Should you require any additional
assistance with the installation and
operation of this product, please call our
toll free application support line at 1-800-
234-8731.

To wire the unit, an 11 pin socket is required. The
unit can either be DIN rail mounted or panel
mounted using the supplied mounting bracket.
For panel mounting, place the unit in the cutout,
then slide the bracket forward over the rear of the
unit so that the tabs catch in the grooves on the
housing and the bracket is as far forward as
possible. Tighten the panel mount screws until
there is a snug fit against the panel. Do not
overtighten.

Warning: Do Not connect a coil in parallel with the start
signal for the B506, as pictured at left. Such a
connection will cause the start signal to be continuously
active. This situation also applies to the Reset and

Time Range Indicator
Illuminates to show the time base: H for

operation the illuminated LED will flash.
Illuminates to display when an input or output is
active: "IN' for the start input, "O1" and "O2" for
the timed outputs.

The lower display will indicate the
value for Preset 1 in one of two
manners:
In Standard Mode: Will display the
time interval for the 1st operation of
the cycle.
In Percentage Mode: Will display the %
of the total time base (P2) applied to
the 1st operation of the cycle.
The lower display will indicate the value
for Preset 2 in one of two manners:
In Standard Mode: Will display the time
interval for the 2nd operation of the
cycle.
In Percentage Mode: Will display the
total time base for the cycle.
The upper display will indicate the
current Batch Count Value, while the
lower display will indicate the Batch
Preset. A setting of "0" will disable
output 2.
Note: The Batch Display will not
appear if "int" is chosen as the
function for Output 2 in Program
Mode.
Illuminates to indicate that the Preset 2 is being
shown on the lower display.

• Enter the Program Mode by holding down the "P" key for 3 seconds
• Press the "P" key to move the top display from one parameter to the next
• Press the "E" key to scroll the bottom display through the available choices for that parameter

Output 2 Operation: Determines the functionality of the 2nd output. Choices are:
• Interval (int): Output 2 parallels the operation of Output 1.
• Batch Count (bC): Output 2 will be activated after a preset amount of Cycles is
completed. The preset value is input in the Batch Count screen in Control Mode.
P
Note: The following parameter will not appear if "Standard" is chosen as the Operating
Function. In that instance, Output 2 will default to "Batch Count".
Batch Function: Determines how the time cycle will be affected when the Batch Count Preset is
reached. Choices are:
• Stop (StoP): The timing cycle will halt after the number of cycles set for the Batch Count
is completed. To activate another cycle, it is necessary to reset the unit and provide a
start signal.
• Continue (Cont): The timing cycle will continue until a reset signal is received.
Note: The following parameter will not appear if "Percentage" and "Interval" are
chosen for the first two settings.
P
Note: The following parameter will not appear if "Percentage" and "Interval" are
chosen for the first two settings.
Batch Count Output: Sets the duration of Output 2, within a range from 1 second to 9999 seconds.
A setting of 0000 will latch the output until a reset signal is received.
CONFIGURATION
Operating Function: Determines how the time periods for the repeat cycle will be set. Choices are:
• Percentage (PErC): Preset one is input as a percentage of the total time base which is
set in Preset 2.
• Standard (Std): Preset one represents the amount of time that output 1 will be "On"
during the cycle. Output 2 represents the "Off" time in the cycle. The time range for
each output is independently settable.

1st Operation: Determines whether the time cycle will start with an "On" operation (Output 1

function of each preset (ie: Preset 1 will change from the On time to the Off time, if "Off" is
chosen for this parameter).
