Abort Function
Abort is a is a temporary function that suspends the releasing count-down after contacts on a momentary-switch are
closed. Suspension of the releasing count-down occurs at 10 seconds. Activating the abort function prior to 10 seconds
continues the releasing count-down until the timer reaches 10 seconds.
Activating the abort function after 10 seconds causes an immediate suspension of the releasing count-down and the
timer holds at 10 seconds. The releasing count-down re-starts at 10 seconds when contacts on the momentary-switch
are opened. A releasing event occurs when the count-down timer reaches zero. An abort function overrides a manual
release function when the manual release is activated before the abort. The manual release function overrides the abort
function when the abort is activated before the manual release.
