Digital timers
Introduction
The Galax family of digital timers is used to switch
loads on and off, according to a pre-programmed
switch-plan, as a function of time.
This range of microprocessor based timers goes
from a simple 1-channel, quartz synchronised, daily
programmable device with 12 programming steps,
mainly used for domestic purposes, up to a 4-
channel DCF-77 synchronised yearly timer with 400
programming steps for high-feature-demanding
industry.
As will be shown below, the very easy and
straightforward programming is the same for the
whole range. For the high-end devices (yearly
programmable), a Windows 95 (and up) compatible
software exists as a further extension for easy
programming, downloading to and uploading from
the timer.
Operation
The 16A output relay contacts are switched
according to the user pre-programmed sequence.
The actual status of an output is clearly visualised
at all time on the LCD (see below).
Besides the automatic switching, the output(s) can
be manually forced to the ON- or OFF-state at any
time.
Features and benefits
Photos 1 to 3 are showing the front of the 1/1 (GLX
Q 1), 2/2 (GLX Q 2) and 6/4 (GLX Q 4)
module/channel Galax timers respectively.
Besides the self-explaining operating and
programming keys
1 , all devices have a Liquid
Crystal Display (LCD)
2 , displaying in a clear and
straightforward way all parameters such as:
- Actual time (hh:mm)
3
- Date where applicable 4
- Day of the week where applicable (1…7;
1=monday)
5
- Channel 1, 2 and 4 operation 6 (for detailed
explanation see the chapter concerning the
programming below)
- Status on or off
- Operated by program
- Manual operation
- Fix on or off
As always, the function of the timer or the circuit
that it operates can be indicated behind the circuit
indicator
7 i.e. hall, living, garage, … .
By means of the plastic cover, the timer can be
sealed so the program and the actual time and date
cannot be altered
8 .
The clearly marked Pozidriv safety terminals
9 are
all captive.
Table 1 summarises all features for the different
devices in the range.
