ON-Delay (delay on make):

When power is applied to the input terminals, the time delay period begins. At the end of the time delay period, the output contacts transfer. Removing power
prompts a reset.

OFF-Delay (delay on break):

Power must be applied at all times to the input terminal. On closure of a normally open control signal switch, the output contacts transfer and remain in this
position. When the control switch is reopened, the time delay period begins. At the end of the time delay period, the output contacts transfer back to original
position. Reset occurs when the control signal switch is closed.

 Timers RTE Series

Instructions

Each RTE series electronic timer is available with two functions (operation
modes) and eight time ranges. Start by determining which timing function RTE-P21-AC120V
and what time range suits your application.

Function Programming
1. Face Plate Removal

Bend the faceplate slightly and pop out the bottom edge (figure 1). Figure 1
2. Timing Function Selection Face Plate

Select the function by moving the DIP switch to the right or left position (Fig-
ure 2). Refer to the table below noting that the function group is the first digit
in the part number. After the face plate is replaced, the DIP switch will be vis- Bottom Slot
ible through the window if it is in the left position. (This is helpful for deter-
mining in which mode the timer is set, without removing the faceplate.)
