4. Persediaan dan Pendawaian

Proper wiring is essential for the correct and safe operation of the FRM01 module. Refer to the diagrams below for connection details.

4.1 Sambungan Bekalan Kuasa

Connect the DC 12V service voltage to the module's power input terminals. Ensure correct polarity (DC+ and DC-).

4.2 Sambungan Beban

The module features a single-pole double-throw (SPDT) relay with Normally Open (NO), Normally Closed (NC), and Common (COM) contacts. Connect your load (e.g., light, motor) to these terminals based on your application's requirements:

• Biasanya Terbuka (NO): The circuit is open (disconnected) when the relay is de-energized and closes (connects) when the relay is energized.
• Normally Closed (NC): The circuit is closed (connected) when the relay is de-energized and opens (disconnects) when the relay is energized.
• Common (COM): This is the shared terminal for both NO and NC contacts.

4.3 Input Signal Connection (CH1)

The CH1 interface accepts a high-level pulse signal (DC 3V-30V) to trigger or reset various functions depending on the selected operating mode.

5. Mod Operasi

The FRM01 module supports several operating modes, each with distinct timing and triggering behaviors. The specific mode is selected during programming.

5.1 Timing Pick/Off Mode

In this mode, after the module is powered on, the relay will energize (pull) for a set duration T1. After T1 expires, the relay de-energizes. A high-level pulse on the CH1 interface will restart this function.

5.2 Timing Pull Off Again Mode

Upon power-up, the relay remains de-energized. After a delay of T1, the relay energizes. It then remains energized for a duration of T2 before de-energizing again. A high-level pulse on the CH1 interface will restart this sequence.

5.3 Infinite Loop Timing Mode 1/2

After power-up, the relay remains de-energized. After a delay of T1, the relay energizes. It then remains energized for a duration of T2 before de-energizing. This cycle (T1 delay, T2 energized) repeats indefinitely. A high-level pulse on the CH1 interface can restart the entire loop.

5.4 Latching/Relay Modes

A high-level pulse on the CH1 interface will energize the relay. A subsequent high-level pulse on CH1 will de-energize the relay. This mode acts as a toggle switch.

5.5 Pull/The Timing Mode

When the module is powered, the relay remains de-energized. A high-level pulse on the CH1 interface will energize the relay for a duration of T1. After T1 expires, the relay de-energizes. Subsequent high-level pulses on CH1 will repeat this function.

6. Pengaturcaraan dan Konfigurasi

The FRM01 module is configured using the onboard buttons: SET, SWI, NUM+, dan NUM-. The display shows the current mode and timing parameters (T1, T2).

6.1 Fungsi Butang:

• SET: Enters programming mode, confirms selections, and saves settings.
• SWI: Switches between different parameters (e.g., T1, T2, operating mode) within programming mode.
• NUM+: Increases the value of the currently selected parameter.
• NUM-: Decreases the value of the currently selected parameter.

6.2 General Programming Steps:

1. Masukkan Mod Pengaturcaraan: Tekan dan tahan butang SET button for a few seconds until the display changes, indicating entry into programming mode.
2. Pilih Mod Pengendalian: guna NUM+ or NUM- to cycle through the available operating modes. The display will typically show a code representing the mode (e.g., P-1, P-2, etc.). Refer to the product documentation for specific mode codes.
3. Mod Sahkan: Tekan SET to confirm the desired operating mode.
4. Adjust Timing Parameters (T1, T2): After selecting the mode, the display will show T1. Use NUM+ dan NUM- to adjust its value. Press SWI to switch to T2 (if applicable for the selected mode) and adjust its value.
5. Set Time Unit: Some modes may allow setting the time unit (seconds, minutes, hours). Use SWI to cycle through units and NUM+/NUM- untuk memilih.
6. Simpan dan keluar: Tekan dan tahan SET again to save all settings and exit programming mode. The module will then operate according to the new configuration.

Note: Specific mode codes and parameter sequences may vary. It is recommended to refer to the detailed programming guide provided with the product for precise instructions.

7. Penyelenggaraan

The FRM01 module is designed for reliable operation with minimal maintenance. Follow these guidelines to ensure its longevity:
