PM4H SERIES MODES AND TIME SETTING
1. Operation method
1) Operation mode setting
[PM4H-A type]
8 operation modes are selectable with
operation mode selector.
Turn the operation mode selector with
screw driver.
Operation mode is shown up through the
window above the mode selector. The
marks are , , , , , , , .
Turn the mode selector to the mark until
you can check by clicking sound.
Confirm the mode selector position if it is
correct.
If the position is not stable, the timer
might mis-operate.
2) Time range setting
[PM4H series common]
16 time ranges are selectable between
1s to 500h.
Turn the time range selector with the
screw driver.
Clockwise turning increases the time
range, and Counter-clockwise turning
decrease the time range.
Confirm the range selector position if it is
correct.
If the position is not stable, the timer
might mis-operate.
3) Time setting [common]
To set the time, turn the set dial to a
desired time within the range.
Instantaneous output will be on when the
dial is set to “0”.
When the instantaneous output is used,
the dial should be set under “0” range.
(Instantaneous output area)
When power supply is on, the time
range, setting time and operation mode
cannot be changed.
Turn off the power supply or a reset sig-
nal is applied to set the new operation
mode.
If the position is not stable, the timer
might mis-operate.

PRECAUTIONS IN USING THE PM4H SERIES
1. Input connections (PM4H-A type)
1) Be sure not to use terminal 8 as the
common terminal of the input signal as
shown in Fig. A. Otherwise, the internal
circuit of the timer may be damaged. Use
terminal 0 as the common terminal as
shown in Fig. B.
If the circuits is connected as in Fig. C,
the internal circuits must be broken. Be
sure to connect the circuit as in Fig. D.
2) When one input signal is simultane-
ously applied to more than one timer,
be sure to avoid the wiring shown in Fig.
E. Otherwise, the short-circuit current
will flow and cause damage. Be sure to
align the polarity of the power supply as
shown in Fig. F.
3) Terminal 0-4 (screw terminal x-c)
should be connected as the start input.
Connect terminals 0-5 (screw terminal
x-v) for reset signal input. Connect
terminals 0-3 (screw terminal x-b) for
stop signal input. Be sure not to connect
with other terminals and apply excessive
voltage. The internal circuit will be dam-
aged.
4) The input wiring other than the power
supply circuit should avoid these condi-
tions, high-voltage wiring and parallel
wiring with power wire. Wire in short with
using the shielding wire or metal wiring
tube.
5) For start, reset and stop input, use
gold-plated contact with high reliability.
Since contact bouncing causes errors
in the start, use an input contact less
bounce time.
6) Keep the minimum signal input time
over 0.05 s.
2. Input signal conditions
(PM4H-A type)
1) Connection of contact input (Pin type
example
Use gold-plated contacts with high-reli-
ability. The bounce time at the contacts
causes errors in the timer operation
time. Accordingly, use start input contact
whose bounce time is short. The resist-
ance when shorted should be less than
1k7, and when open resistance should
be more than 100k7.
For the screw terminal type, connect the
terminal x to the each input signal.
2) Connection of non-contact input (Pin
type example)
(open-collector)
Apply the open-collector connection.
The characteristics of the transistor used
must be VCEO=10V or more, IC=10mA or
more, and ICBO=6μA or less. Additionally,
the input impedance must be 1k7 or
less, and the residual voltage must be
0.6V or less.
For the screw terminal type, connect the
terminal x to the each input signal.
3) Connection of non-contact input (Pin
type example)
(voltage input)
Even if the open collector is not used,
input is also possible from the non-con-
tact circuit of 6 to 30V DC. In this case,
the start input is turned on when the sig-
nal is turned from H to L.
The residual voltage must be 0.6V or
less when Q is on. On the AC type, an
insulated transformer is required as
the power supply for the photoelectric
sensor, etc. (power supply for the input
devices).
Note: Keep the minimum input signal time of
each signal to 0.05s or more.
3. Checking the contacts before use
(PM4H-F only)
When the power ON time is less than
the minimum power application time,
the contacts may remain in an ON state,
so the state of the contacts should be
checked before use. When the contacts
are in an ON state, activating them once
will return them to their normal state (the
OFF state after time-out). (Be aware that
relay characteristics may result in the
contacts being in that same ON state
if exposed to excessive vibration and
impact during transport.)
4. Time setting
To set the time, turn the set dial to a
desired time within the range.
Instantaneous output will be on when the
dial is set to “0”.
When the instantaneous output is used,
the dial should be set under “0” range.
(Instantaneous output area)
Note) When power supply is on, the time
range, setting time and operation mode
cannot be changed.
Turn off the power supply or a reset sig-
nal is applied to set the new operation
mode.
If the position is not stable, the timer
might mis-operate.

PRECAUTIONS IN USING THE PM4H SERIES
5. Superimposed surge of power
supply (PM4H series common)
For the superimposed surge of power
supply, the standard waveform is taken
as the standard value for surge-proof
voltage.
If external surge occurs exceeding the
specified value, the internal circuit may
break down. In this case, use a surge
absorption element.
The positive and negative voltages are
applied each five times between the
power pins.
The typical surge absorption elements
include a varistor, a capacitor, and a
diode. If a surge absorption element is
used, use an oscilloscope to see whether
or not the foreign surge exceeding the
specified value appears.
6. Acquisition of CE marking
Please abide by the conditions below
when using in applications that comply
with EN61812-1.
1) Overvoltage category III, pollution
level 2
2) This timer employs a power supply
without a transformer, so the power and
input signal terminals are not insulated.
(PM4H-A only)
(1) When a sensor is connected to the
input circuit, install double insulation on
the sensor side.
(2) In the case of contact input, use dual-
insulated relays, etc.
3) The load connected to the output con-
tact should have basic insulation.
This timer is protected with basic insula-
tion and can be double-insulated to meet
EN/IEC requirements by using basic
insulation on the load.
4) Please use a power supply that is
protected by an overcurrent protection
device which complies with the EN/IEC
standard (example: 250 V 1 A fuse, etc.).
5) You must use a terminal socket or
socket for the installation. Do not touch
the terminals or other parts of the timer
when it is powered. When installing or
un-installing, make sure that no voltage
is being applied to any of the terminals.
6) Do not use this timer as a safety cir-
cuit. For example when using a timer in
a heater circuit, etc., provide a protection
circuit on the machine side.
