Question

How do you adjust the rotary switches on the Dold Timer relays?

Answer

Range tmax	1 sec	6 sec	30 sec	3 min	30 min	300 min	30 h	300 h
time setting t	time in sec	time in sec	time in sec	time in min	time in min	time in min	time in h	time in h
0.01	0.02	0.06	0.3	0.03	0.3	3	0.3	3
0.1	0.1	0.6	3	0.3	3	30	3	30
0.2	0.2	1.2	6	0.6	6	60	6	60
0.3	0.3	1.8	9	0.9	9	90	9	90
0.4	0.4	2.4	12	1.2	12	120	12	120
0.5	0.5	3	15	1.5	15	150	15	150
0.6	0.6	3.6	18	1.8	18	180	18	180
0.7	0.7	4.2	21	2.1	21	210	21	210
0.8	0.8	4.8	24	2.4	24	240	24	240
0.9	0.9	5.4	27	2.7	27	270	27	270
1	1	6	30	3	30	300	30	300

Example 1: you want to adjust 15 minutes, so you select the "range tmax" to 30 min and the "time setting t" to 0.5 which results in 15 min.
Example 2: you want to adjust 22 seconds, so you select the "range tmax" to 30 sec and the "time setting t" between 0.7 and 0.8 (0.73) which results in 22 sec.
