Delay On Make
Has also been referred to as delay-on-operate,
delay-on-pickup, and delay-on-energize. This mode of operation indicates that the timing
period follows the application of operating voltage, control voltage, or the closure of an
separate initiate switch. After the timing period expires, the output is energized.
Delay-on-make models are available in both solid state and relay contact output.

Delay On Break
Delay-On-Break . . . as also
been referred to as delay-off, delay-on-release, and delay-on-dropout. This mode of
operation indicates that the output energizes first and remains energized until after the
timing period which does not begin until operating voltage, control voltage, or the
opening of an separate initiate switch. After the timing period expires, the output is
de-energized. This mode of operation requires standby voltage during the timing period.
Delay-on-Break models are available in both solid state and relay contact output.
TRUE Delay-On-Break . . . Has
also been referred to as true delay-off, true delay-on-release, and true delay-on-dropout.
This mode of operation is identical to the delay-on-break operation above, but the major
difference is that this mode of operation does not require standby voltage during the
timing period. True Delay-on-Break models are available only in relay contact output.

Delay On
Make & Break
Delay-On-Make / Delay-On-Break . . . Combines
the modes of operation of the delay-on-make with the delay-on-break. This mode always
requires that standby voltage be applied at all times and the timing action initiated by
either a control switch, referred to as the initiate switch, or another voltage source.

Interval
This mode of operation indicates that the output
is energized when the operating voltage is applied, or an initiate switch is closed. The
timing period (interval) also begins when the output is energized. At the end of the
timing period (interval) the output de-energizes, even though the operating voltage or the
initiate switch is still active.
Characteristic of an interval mode is that the
operating voltage must be applied longer than the interval timing period, or the initiate
switch, if required by model, must be closed longer than the timing period.

Single Shot
Single Shot ... Similar to interval, but where
the interval had to have the operating voltage, or the initiate switch closed longer than
the timing interval, the single-shot requires only a momentary closure of an initiate
switch to provide the interval mode of timing.

Countdown Controller
A countdown controller is an interval /
single-shot device with a 4 digit LED display showing the time remaining in the output
cycle and built-in switches for time adjustment and start / stop control.

Repeat Cycle
Repeat Cycle . . . Sometimes referred to as ON /
OFF timers, cycling timers, or percentage timers, the repeat cycle mode of operation turns
a circuit ON and OFF continuously on a repeating basis for as long as the operating
voltage, or an initiate switch is applied. While the repeat cycle timer, and the ON/OFF
timer are grouped together here as repeat cycle timers, there is one major difference
between the two which may prove critical for your application. With any of Artisan
Controls' repeat cycle timers you can vary the ON portion of the repeat cycle and not
effect the overall repeat cycle time. With any of Artisan Controls' ON/OFF timers you vary
the repeat cycle time when you change either the ON or the OFF timing periods. Available
in repeat cycle mode are percentage timers, as well as programmable multiple output repeat
cycle timers.
Repeat cycle models are available in both solid
state and relay contact output.

Flasher
Flashers are a special kind of repeat cycle
time. The only difference is the user can control the flash rate (flashes per sec etc.)
only. The ON and OFF portion of the cycle are equal (50% duty cycle).
Flasher models are available in both solid state
and relay contact output.

7 Day Event or Bell
Controller
These controllers allow the user to program
multiple events which can occur on a daily or weekly basis. The controller is configured
for the current time and day of the week, then the event are programmed. The only
difference between Event or Bell controllers is the way events control the relay outputs :
Event Controller : At the time
of the programmed event the relay outputs can be turned of or turned on. To make one of
the relays turn on for 3 hours requires two events, one to energize the relay, and another
to de-energize it. One event can be used to change the state many relay outputs.
Bell Controller : The output
relay is programmed to turn on for a certain duration, usually up to 99 seconds. This
requires only one event to turn on a bell or buzzer for a short duration. This controller
is ideal for school and work shift bells.
