Ordering Information
■List of Models
Note: Depending on the wiring, unwanted current from the AC power supply may occasionally burn out internal parts. H5CX-A/-L (except for
H5CX-A11/-A11S) models do not have a transformer. Therefore, the power supply and input circuit are not insulated. Refer to Safety Pre-
cautions (H5CX-A/-L) on page 49 for wiring details. The power supply and input circuit for H5CX-A11/-A11S models have basic insulation.
■Accessories (Order Separately)
Note 1. Supplied with H5CX-A@models (except for H5CX-A11@and H5CX-L8@models).
2. Y92A-48G is a finger-safe terminal cover attached to the P3G-08 or P3GA-11 Socket.

■Characteristics
Note 1. The values are based on the set value.
2. The value is applied for a minimum pulse width of 1 ms.
3. To meet UL listing requirements with H5CX-L8@/-A11@models, an OMRON P2CF-08-@or P3G-08 Socket must be mounted on the Timer.
Otherwise, H5CX-L8@/-A11@models are considered to meet UL508 recognition requirements.
4. The Y92S-29 Waterproof Packing and Y92F-30 Flush Mounting Adapter are necessary to ensure IP66, NEMA4, and UL Type 4X water-
proofing between the H5CX and installation panel.

■Life-test Curve (Reference Values)
Reference: A maximum current of 0.15 A can be switched at
125 VDC (cosf=1) and a maximum current of 0.1 A
can be switched if L/R is 7 ms. In both cases, a life of
100,000 operations can be expected. The minimum
applicable load is 10 mA at 5 VDC (failure level: P).

■Terminal Arrangement
Confirm that the power supply meets specifications before use.
Note 1. Do not connect unused terminals as relay terminals.
2. The power supply and input circuit are not insulated, so unwanted current from the AC power supply may burn out internal parts. Refer to
Safety Precautions (H5CX-A/-L) on page 49 for wiring details.

Note 1. The mounting panel thickness
should be 1 to 5 mm.
2. To allow easier operability, it is
recommended that Adapters are
mounted so that the gap between
sides with hooks is at least 15 mm.
3. It is possible to mount timers side
by side, but only in the direction
without the hooks.

Note: 1. Depending on the operating environment, the condition of
resin products may deteriorate, and may shrink or become
harder. Therefore, it is recommended that resin products
are replaced regularly.
2. The H5CX’s panel surface is water-resistive (conforming to
IP66) and so even if drops of water penetrate the gaps be-
tween the keys, there will be no adverse effect on internal
circuits. If, however, there is a possibility of oil being present
on the operator’s hands, use the Soft Cover. The Soft Cover
ensures protection equivalent to IP54F against oil. Do not,
however, use the H5CX in locations where it would come in
direct contact with oil.
Note: Order the Flush Mounting Adapter separately if it is lost or dam-
aged. Note: Use Waterproof Packing to provide a level of water protection that complies with NEMA4, UL Type 4X, or IP66 standards. Or-
der the Waterproof Packing separately if it is lost or damaged.
Depending on the operating environment, the Waterproof
Packing may deteriorate, contract, or harden and so regular re-
placement is recommended.

20 Multifunction Digital Timer H5CX-A/-L (Timer Function)
Explanation of Functions
Time Range (timr) (Setting possible using DIP switch.)
Set the range to be timed in the range 0.000 s to 9,999 h. Settings of
type ---- h (9,999 h) and ---- min (9,999 min) cannot, however, be
made with the DIP switch. Use the operation keys if these settings
are required.
Timer Mode (timm) (Setting possible using DIP switch.)
Set either the elapsed time (UP) or remaining time (DOWN) mode.
Output Mode (outm) (Setting possible using DIP switch.)
Set the output mode. The possible settings are A, A-1, A-2, A-3, b, b-
1, d, E, F, and Z. Only output modes A, A-2, E, and F can be set
using the DIP switch. Use the operation keys if a different setting is
required. (For details on output mode operation, refer to “Timing
Charts” on page 22.)
Output Time (otim)
When using one-shot output, set the output time for one-shot output
(0.01 to 99.99 s). One-shot output can be used only if the selected
output mode is A, A-1, A-2, b, or b-1. If the output time is set to 0.00,
hold is displayed, and the output is held.
Input Signal Width (iflt) (Setting possible using DIP
switch.)
Set the minimum signal input width (20 ms or 1 ms) for signal, reset,
and gate inputs. The same setting is used for all external inputs (sig-
nal, reset, and gate inputs). If contacts are used for the input signal,
set the input signal width to 20 ms. Processing to eliminate chatter-
ing is performed for this setting.
NPN/PNP Input Mode (imod)
Select either NPN input (no-voltage input) or PNP input (voltage
input) as the input format. The same setting is used for all external
inputs. For details on input connections, refer to “Input Connections”
on page 9.
Display Color (colr)
Set the color used for the present value.
Key Protect Level (kypt)
Set the key protect level.
When the key-protect switch is set to ON, it is possible to prevent setting errors by prohibiting the use of certain operation keys by specifying the
key protect level (KP-1 to KP-5). The key protect indicator is lit while the key-protect switch is set to ON.
Note: Changing mode to timer/twin timer selection mode ( + 1 s min.) or function setting mode ( 3 s min.).
