MSD Ignition 7563 User manual

MSD Dual Delay Timer
PN 7563
Parts Included:
1 - Dual Timer Delay
WARNING: Before installing the MSD Timer, disconnect the battery cables. When dis-
connecting the battery cables, always remove the Negative (-) cable first
and install it last.
The Dual Delay Timer allows you to activate two different circuits based on time (Channel 1
and Channel 2). Each Channel can be used to activate (supply a ground source) or deactivate
(remove the ground) at a programmed time. The time is adjustable down to 0.01-second
increments.
Note: To control devices that require over 2 amps, a relay will be required. MSD offers a
SPDT 30 Amp/12 Volt DC as PN 8961 or a DPDT 30 Amp/12 Volt DC as PN 8960.

PROGRAMMING
When the Timer is turned on, three dashes will appear across the monitor. The Mode button switches
between the programming stages. First you select Channel 1 or Channel 2 by pressing Mode,
followed by the up or down button.
Once a Channel is chosen, press Mode again to select between On or Off. This determines if the
ground is connected (On) or removed/open (Off). Pressing Mode again will take you to the time
setting which can be set from 0.01 - 9.99 seconds.
Also notice the mode indicators on the monitor (Figure 2). Each of these LEDs will be illuminated
while being programmed. Also, the LED will either be On when the Channel is activated or Off when
the Channel is Off.
Once programmed, the Light Blue wire must be momentarily connected to 12 volts. This resets the
Timer to zero. When 12 volts are removed from the Dark Blue wire, the timer begins. It will count to
9.99 seconds and stop. Note that the only way to stop the timer once it is going is to apply 12 volts
to the Light Blue wire again (reset), or by touching any of the programming buttons.
