DESCRIPTION

The PAXTM (PAX

®

 Timer) and PAXCK (PAX

®

 Clock/Timer) offer many

features and performance capabilities to suit a wide range of industrial
applications. Both can function as an Elapsed Timer or Preset Timer,
while the PAXCK also offers Real-Time Clock with Date capability. The
option cards allow the opportunity to configure the meter for the present
application, while providing easy upgrades for future needs.

Both units can function as an Elapsed Time Indicator. By using two

separate signal inputs and 23 selectable timer ranges, the meters can be
programmed to meet most any timing application. By adding a setpoint
option card, they can easily become a dual or quad output preset timer.

The PAXCK can also operate as a Real-Time Clock (RTC), with the

Real-Time Clock Card already installed. The meter is capable of
displaying time in 12 or 24-hour time formats. The 12-hour format can be
displayed in hours and minutes, with or without an AM/PM indication or in
hours, minutes, and seconds. The 24-hour format can be displayed in
hours and minutes or in hours, minutes, and seconds. The PAXCK is also
capable of a calendar display in which the day, month and/or year can be
displayed. The meter will recognize leap years, and can automatically
adjust for Daylight Savings Time. The Real-Time Clock has the ability to
externally synchronize with other PAXCK meters to provide a uniform
display network throughout the plant.

If the application calls for both a Preset Timer and a Real-Time Clock at

the same time, the PAXCK can handle this requirement as well. The
meter provides up to four different displays, accessed via front panel push
buttons or external inputs. The displays are Timer (TMR), which displays
the current timer value; Count (CNT), which displays the current cycle
counter value; Date (DAT), which displays the current programmed date;
and Real-Time Clock, which displays the current time. A battery-backed
Real-Time Clock card is provided with the PAXCK. This card, which
includes a lithium coin-cell battery, will maintain the time and date when
main power is removed.

The meters accept inputs from a variety of sources including switch

contacts and outputs from CMOS or TTL circuits. The input can be
configured to trigger on the edge or level of the incoming pulse. Internal
jumpers are available to allow the selection for sinking inputs (active low)
or sourcing inputs (active high).

The front panel keys and three user inputs are programmable to

perform various meter functions. One of the functions includes
exchanging parameter lists, allowing for two separate listings of setpoint

values, timer start/stop values, counter start/stop values and RTC daily on
and off values.

Optional digital output cards provide the meter with up to four setpoint

outputs. The cards are available as dual relay, quad relay, quad sinking
transistor, quad sourcing transistor/SSR drive, or dual triac/dual SSR
drive outputs. The setpoint alarms can be configured to suit a variety of
control and alarm requirements.

Communication and Bus Capabilities are also available as option

cards. These include RS232, RS485, Modbus, DeviceNet, and Profibus-
DP. Readout values and setpoint alarm values can be controlled through
the bus. Additionally, the meters have a feature that allows a remote
computer to directly control the outputs of the meter. With an RS232 or
RS485 card installed, it is possible to configure the meter using a
Windows

®

 based program. The configuration data can be saved to a file

for later recall.

Once the meters have been initially configured, the parameter list may

be locked out from further modification entirely, or the setpoint, timer start/
stop values, counter start/stop values, RTC time SET, and Display
Intensity can be made accessible. This lockout is possible through a
security code or user input.

The meters have been specifically designed for harsh industrial

environments. With a NEMA 4X/IP65 sealed bezel and extensive testing
to meet CE requirements, the meter provides a tough yet reliable
application solution.

SAFETY

 

SUMMARY

All safety related regulations, local codes and instructions that appear

in this  literature or on equipment must be observed to ensure personal
safety and to  prevent damage to either the instrument  or equipment
connected to it. If equipment is used in a manner not specified by the
manufacturer, the protection  provided by the equipment may be impaired.

Do not use this unit to directly command motors, valves, or other

actuators  not equipped with safeguards. To do so can be potentially
harmful to persons or  equipment in the event of a fault to the unit.

CAUTION: Risk Of Danger.

Read complete instructions prior to 

installation and operation of the unit.

CAUTION: 

Risk of electric shock.
