Prinsip Operasi

The FCT18-S asymmetric cycle timer relay operates in two fundamental modes, both providing cyclical timing control but with different starting behaviors:

Repeat Cycle Starting ON Mode

In this mode, the timing cycle begins with the relay in the activated state (ON). When power is applied to the UN terminals:

1. The relay immediately activates (R)
2. The timer counts down the T1 period
3. After T1 expires, the relay deactivates
4. The timer counts down the T2 period
5. After T2 expires, the relay activates again
6. The cycle repeats continuously as long as power is maintained

This mode is ideal for applications where equipment needs to start operating immediately upon power application.

Repeat Cycle Starting OFF Mode (Jumper A1-S)

In this mode, the timing cycle begins with the relay in the deactivated state (OFF). When power is applied to the UN terminals with the A1-S jumper connected:

1. The relay remains deactivated (R)
2. The timer counts down the T2 period
3. After T2 expires, the relay activates
4. The timer counts down the T1 period
5. After T1 expires, the relay deactivates again
6. The cycle repeats continuously as long as power is maintained

This mode is preferable for applications where a delay is required before the first operation begins.
