A cycle is not this clock
On off cyclic timer switches that loop ON then OFF are a pulse job. The KG316T page answers with a rail clock.
The pulse lives on two independent times. The clock lives on a table of events.
A cycle is not a clock table
The useful first picture is a pulse that turns a load on, then off, then on again. The product sheet stores repeating clock events instead.
A time switch (also called a timer switch, or simply timer) is a device that operates an electric switch controlled by a timer. That sentence describes the job. It does not force two independent pots.
A cyclical timer switches equipment both on and off at preset times over a period, then repeats the cycle. The period is usually 24 hours or 7 days.
That encyclopedia cycle is a day or a week. It is not an ON pulse and an OFF pulse that ignore the clock face.
If you need one press of a recycling pair, say that on the order. Mixing it into “cyclic timer” is how a weekly clock arrives when a pulse was expected.
The page stores on and off events
The schedule is stored as on and off events. The page prints how dense that schedule can be.
The page allows up to 16 on and off actions a day, a maximum setting of 168 hours, and a minimum setting of 1 minute.
Switching times can repeat on a daily or weekly cycle. The page also prints a lamp load of 0.9 kW.
If the lamp load is larger than that line, stop and change the page or the load. A cyclic slogan does not raise the lamp rating.
| What you brought | What can answer it |
|---|---|
| ON for a few minutes, OFF for a few minutes, all day | A recycling pulse |
| Sixteen stored events on a week | The KG316T clock |
| One count that opens a breaker | A countdown release |
The face of the module is the clock body.
A hall that turns on at dusk and off at midnight can sit next to this page. A pump that must pulse every few minutes cannot borrow that table.
Independent on and off times are another family
The useful second picture is two pots. One pot is ON. The other pot is OFF.
The pair repeats while power stays on.
From the field: On a DIY thread, a reader needed an instrument on for 5 minutes, then off for 5 minutes, in a loop throughout the day. Another line said a normal digital timer with about 24 programs a day was simply not enough.
Source: Reddit r/DIY looped-schedule thread.
A plant thread asked for a quarter-hour on and a quarter-hour off and refused to fill a clock with dozens of rows. A later reply said the job was a cycle timer relay.
If those two independent times are the job, stop. This sheet is the wrong body.
The clock stays on the rail.
Keep the recycling pair on its own shelf note. Keep this page for stored events.
Sixteen events still fill a day
Sixteen events can look busy. They still sit on a clock.
A person can type many on and off rows and still miss a pulse that must ignore sunrise. The table does not become two pots because the rows are dense.
If the only schedule anyone wants is Tuesday late and Friday early, stay with the stored events. If the only start anyone wants is ON then OFF then ON, change the family.
The KG316T page prints a rated control supply of AC 50/60 Hz at 220 V and 380 V. Match the cabinet supply to that pair.
A cabinet on the printed pair can sit next to this page. A recycling module that only ever saw two pots cannot borrow the pair.
The rail still only holds the timer
A DIN rail is a metal rail of a standard type widely used for mounting circuit breakers and industrial control equipment inside equipment racks. The rail holds the timer. It does not become a recycling pair.
A relay is an electrically operated switch. The KG316T uses a relay output for the timed circuit. The rail still does not grow two pots because the load sits in a plant room.
A light switch is a switch most commonly used to operate electric lights. Time-controlled switches can sit in that wall job. This rail clock is not that plate.
Keys set the week, not a pulse
The page tells you to set the clock with Set Week, Set Hour, and Set Minute. Unlock needs Cancel/Restore four times.
Those are key moves. They are not two independent pulse times.
From the field on the time-switch talk page, hallway lights followed Summer Time rather than Solar Time.
That mistake belongs to a clock with a calendar basis. It is not a missing recycling pair.
If you need dusk without a clock, you need a different product family. If you need a weekly program, stay with the stored events on this page.
Do not import the summer-time drift as a broken cyclic pulse.
A countdown release is another family
A countdown time switch switches power, usually off, after a preset time. A cyclical timer repeats. The KG316T page is the repeating clock case.
The YJDST-I digital countdown release is the other family when a count opens a small breaker. That page is still not a recycling pair.
Keep the countdown article for the breaker-release job. Keep this page for the pulse-versus-clock split.
The KG316T time control switch is the rail page for stored events. The timer hub collects the other timer articles if you needed a lat-long body or a countdown release.
The rail clock is the sheet on that product page.
Before you order, say whether anyone will set two independent times. If the answer is yes, stop. If the answer is a dry rail clock, read the printed supply pair and the lamp load again.
Say who sets the program. A weekly hall schedule that drifts with summer time is a clock problem. A missing recycling pair is a body problem.
Keep those calls on separate lines.
If the advertising-sign language on the page is what brought you here, keep reading the key lines. Marketing use cases do not invent two pots.
Read the note aloud. You want pulse, then rail clock, then the supply. A note that only says “cyclic timer” will mix the pulse with the keys.
Keep a spare for the person who wires the cabinet. Name the control supply, the number of daily actions, and whether the load is inside the lamp rating.
The pulse stays on its own module. The clock stays on the rail.
A second person should find the rail without hunting a recycling relay. Name the room and the board. If the only instruction is “cyclic timer,” that person will look for two pots and miss the cabinet.
Street lamps and advertising signs appear in the marketing language on the page. They still do not add a recycling pair.
Read the enclosure line and the lamp load again before the carton leaves the shelf. The KG316T page prints a protection rating of IP50.
If the only trigger anyone wants is ON then OFF then ON without a week table, stop. This page is the program conversation.
A buyer who only says “cyclic on off” will expect two pots. Answer with the pulse place first. Then answer with the stored events.
Only after both are clear should anyone open the KG316T carton for that job.
If the board sits in a plant room with a closed door, the rail clock can still be the right conversation. A recycling pair does not move into that room by itself.
When the lamp load sits near the printed lamp line, stay honest about headroom. The page prints that lamp line. It does not print a larger flood load.
Change the sheet or the load before you invent capacity.
A weekly program with sixteen actions is dense enough for many hall schedules. It is still not two pots.
Keep the recycling family on its own shelf note when a loop of ON and OFF is the only start anyone wants.
A second note can name the room with the pulse module and the room with the rail. Those two rooms are the whole order. Mixing them into one carton is how the wrong body leaves the shelf.
If the only schedule anyone wants is Tuesday late and Friday early, stay with the stored events. If the only start anyone wants is a loop, change the family.
The clock still only stores events. Your note has to carry the pulse place when a recycling pair is the job.
Frequently asked questions
These answers stay with the pages opened for this draft.
What does a cyclical timer do in the encyclopedia?
A cyclical timer switches equipment both on and off at preset times over a period, then repeats the cycle. The period is usually 24 hours or 7 days.
How many on/off actions can the KG316T page store in a day?
The page allows up to 16 on and off actions a day, a maximum setting of 168 hours, and a minimum setting of 1 minute.
Why do plant readers refuse to program a clock many times?
A plant thread refused to fill a clock with dozens of rows for a repeating on and off loop. A later reply named a cycle timer relay.
Which control voltages does the KG316T page print?
The KG316T page prints a rated control supply of AC 50/60 Hz at 220 V and 380 V.
What lamp load does that page print?
The page also prints a lamp load of 0.9 kW. Stay inside that line for lamp duty.
Why is a countdown release a different family?
A countdown time switch switches power, usually off, after a preset time. This page is the repeating clock case.
