Synchronisation

Synchronisation
This function provides date- and time-specific output variables based on the date and time
information of the device.
Digital signals are thereby available which can be used to enable other functions at specific dates
or times, for example.
The function can run either once or cyclically.
General enabling of the function (digital value ON/OFF)
Available for selection: Hour, Day, Month, Year
Available for selection: Cyclical or Once
Enter the start and stop times for each time window
➢ The Cyclical / Once setting defines whether the set windows should run once or repeatedly
(cyclically) when Enable is switched ON.
➢ The function allows up to eight date or time windows.
➢ Start and end of the window:
In the modes Hour and Day the time window starts and ends at the start of the minute
specified.
In the modes Month and Year the time window starts and ends at 00:00 h on the days
specified.
Synchronisation status ON/OFF; selection of the output
Controller start status ON/OFF
➢ The Controller start generates a pulse 20 seconds long 40 seconds after the device is
switched on or reset. This is used for monitoring controller starts (e.g. after power failures) in
the datalogging feature. This requires the interval in datalogging to be set to 10 seconds,
however.
