5. TIMER WORK MODE.
F17=1 Delayed switch off
Timer turns on Output1 for T1 time after the START
command. After that time, timer turns off Output1 and turns
on beeper. The beeper operates fot the time set in
F83 parameter. You can mute it with any button in any time.

Timer operates in one of the following work modes. Depending on you needs, choose the
suitable function for your system.
Currently measured time T1 ( icon) or time T2 ( icon) is indicated on the display while
working . Time T2 is locked, when it is not in use (parameter F17=1,2). After lapse of set time,
Output1 is turned on or off, which is signalled by diode. The end of countdown is signalled by
message on the display and it can be also signalled by built-in beeper (F83 parameter).

Timer can be controlled by buttons or and external signal applied to the D1 input.
6.1. BUTTONS CONTROL.
Commands can be activated by buttons on a front panel.
START
Press to start the countdown. Countdown passage of time is
indicated on the display, by or diode and by colon flashing
(flashes only when F10=1).

PAUZA/STOP
When PAUSE fucntion is active (F18=1). While counting down you
can stop it with key. While stoppage the display shows
message. Counting down can be resumed with button. When
the PAUSE fucntion is inactive (F18=0). Pressing button
finishes counting down and the displat shows message.

6.2. EXTERNAL ALARM CONTROL.
Commands can be also enabled by shorting circuit signal applied to D1 digital input. Connect
the circuit with shorting element to 4-5 contacts for example. With simple bipolar (bistable) or
bell pulse (monostable) switch and choose one of the following digital input work modes in F50
parameter. Shorting 4-5 contacts circuit the following commands will be triggered.

8. INSTALLATION.
Be aware of the conditions where the controller operates. Install in a place, where there is not
too high temperature and humidity and no condensation. Should be ventilated in order to
remove the heat.
ATTENTION!
It is not allowed to work with electric cables when the device is powered. You should avoid
crossing wires by using short connections. We recommend securing the source of controller
power supply and temperature sensor input against electrical interference.
10. WIRING DIAGRAM.
Power supply
D1 - digital input START/STOP/PAUSE
D2 - digital input RESET
OUT1 - output 20A-AC1 (8A-AC3) 250V~
6.3. EXTERNAL ALARM CONTROL (RESET).
Reset command can be induced by a short-circuit signal applied to D2 digital input.
The 2-3 contacts must be connected to the shorting pulse circuit element including the bell
pulse switch (monostable). Short circuit of 2-3 contacts will induce RESET command , counting
will be cancelled and reset.
7. OPERATING AFTER POWER LOSS.
TC-11, depending on the version, is supplied with 230VAC or 12VAC/DC or 24VAC/DC.
A power shortage may occur during the operation of the device. The F81 parameter determines
the operation of the device after a power shortage.
If F81=0, when the power returns, the timer resets, resets the value and deactivates the control
output.
If F81=1, after the power returns, the timer will continue to count down and run the control
output.

Make sure that the electrical parameters of the device correspond to the parameters of the
controller(maximumvoltage,currentrating,power).

Timer meets the requirements for immunity to electromagnetic interference in an industrial
environment according to the following standards:
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC):
–EN-61000 part 6-4 – requirements for emissivity in an industrial environment
–EN-61000 part 6-2 – requirements for immunity in an industrial environment
It also meets the safety requirements according to standard:
–EN-61000 part 1 – safety requirements for eletrical devices
Controller meets the requirements of EU directives No. 72/23/EEC; 93/68/EEC; 89/336EEC.
