EDM Solution Ultima 844 - Pulsing Polarities; Timing of Outputs

Programmable Outputs 213
Timing Of Outputs
The timing of outputs is calculated by the time base and a multiplier. These two values play different
roles depending on the polarity selected. When programming outputs to pulse, both the "On" and
"Off" times can be set. One shot polarities can be programmed to operate between 200 ms up to 99
hours in duration.
Time Multiplier
Base Tens / Units
The maximum value that can be programmed in the two multiplier locations is 99.

Table 118: Time Base Settings
The time base settings can be set to only one of the values listed in "Table 118: Time Base Settings".
The multiplier value is a two digit decimal number from 00-99. For greater accuracy, use 60 seconds
for 1 minute intervals and use 60 minutes for one hour intervals.
Pulsing Polarities
When calculating pulsing polarities both the "On" and "Off" times need to be programmed. The
duration or "On" time of an output is determined by selecting only one of the time base options from
"Table 118: Time Base Settings". This means there are only four "On" times to choose from.
The "Off" time is calculated as a multiple of the "On" time by choosing a decimal number between 00
and 99. If an output is required to operate for 200 ms every five seconds, program the time settings as
follows;
