The Timekeeper™ can increment the production actual
count by a scale.

 Turn the knob until the scale factor is set.

Display Outputs
The Production Timekeeper™ can display multiple
parameters. Setup the unit address on the remote
displays to capture the desired values.

 Target Count. This can be a running or static
production Goal count. (Unit address = A11)
 Actual Count. This the actual number of units
produced. (Unit address = A12)
 Deviation between target and actual count.

 Production Efficiency displayed as a
percentage. (Unit address = A14)

Remote Inputs
The timer can be started or paused by grounding the
run and pause inputs respectively. The production
actual count can be incremented by grounding the
Count input. The production count and production goal
can be reset by pressing the reset input.
 IN1 – RUN. Changes the display to timer
mode and starts the timer if it is paused.
 IN2 – PAUSE. Pauses the timer. The timer
stops, all indicators go off.
 IN3 – RESET. Stores the current production
actual count. The tallye LED will be green.
Once the actual count is stored the running
goal and actual counts are reset. NOTE: This
input functions the same as pressing and
holding the HISTORY button.
 IN4 – COUNT. Increments the actual
production count.

NOTE: See the wiring diagrams for
connection details.

An optional optical coupler may be connected to these
inputs for isolated machine control of these inputs.
Setting the Button Delay Hold-off
The Timekeeper™ remote inputs may be connected to
various sensors. There are occasions when it is
necessary to ignore button input after a trigger to
prevent false counts on the tallye count input. For
instance, you may be counting CD cases with a photo-
sensor. The passing of a CD case increments the count,
but a second, false count may occur since CD cases are
clear. By setting a delay time on the count input (IN4)
to 1 second, the false count will be ignored.

 Press the TALLYE button. The
Timekeeper™ will display the current count.
 Press and hold the START button for 2
seconds or more. The display will show the
delay time for input one (IN1).
 Press the SELECT button 3 times. The
Timekeeper™ will display the delay time for
input four (IN4).
 Turn the KNOB until the desired time in
tenths of a second is displayed. A value of 10
= 1 second; A value of 27 = 2.7 seconds; etc.
 The new value is immediately stored in
EEPROM and will be restored when the
power is turned on
