The CX311Z6, CX300 is a microprocessor based timer/counter housed in a standard 15 terminal CYCL-FLEX® plug-in case which allows easy removal for programming changes and replacement. Time or count operation, time range, and the type of start input switch operation are programmed with 7 miniature rocker switches located inside the unit housing. The front panel of the CX300 is a sealed membrane keypad which provides excellent protection for most industrial environments. The time or count setpoint is entered using the increment and decrement keys for each digit position. The SET and ENT keys provide access to the setpoint, as well as to the front panel programmable software functions. These programmable functions control the pulse output length, setpoint to zero or zero to setpoint cycle progress indication, and count input scale factor. The software programming functions are indicated by prompts to help the user program these functions without the need for written instructions.
