The Naztec Chronomax Programmable Time Switch is a premier dual-output time switch
featuring intuitive, user friendly operation. The user can access all functions of the
time switch through a user-friendly interface. The relay outputs can be programmed with up
to 64 steps. For each step, either output may be turned on or off at a specific time and
day (or combination of days, weekdays, weekend, or everyday). Likewise, the dual DC
flasher output has the same 64 step capacity, and a power saving programmable feature that
permits control of the duty cycle.
A total of 128 schedule exceptions are provided in a variety of formats.
An exception is considered a period of non-operation. Annual exceptions are available in
which the user simply enters the starting and stopping month and day of the month. Annual
exceptions are considered valid for any year. Period exceptions, which are very similar to
annual exceptions, allow the user to enter the full starting and stopping dates of the
exception. The exception will be considered valid for only the year designated. Finally,
floating exceptions permit the user to specify days of non-operation by the specific
occurrence of a day within a month, and a number of days which follow it (i.e.,
Thanksgiving, fourth Thursday of November).
The Chronomax allows the user to select either synchronization with the AC
input line (60 Hz) or an internal crystal operation for its timing reference. In the event
of an AC power failure, the clock will automatically switch to crystal operation in order
to retain the proper time. Power is supplied for up to 48 hours by a capacitive back-up
system. The RS-232 interface, standard in all Chronomax Time Switches, enables a user to
transmit data from clock to clock, or PC to clock for quick and error free programming.
This serial communications port also interfaces to nearby closed loop systems via modem,
radio, or pager. The user may choose to upload or download single databases, miscellaneous
setup data, or all program information through the RS-232 port. |
