Interval

Corner

Pegging

Above the HIGH
SPEED FAST RATE Operates
normally
Under HIGH SPEED
Over LOW SPEED
(Only when the set
HIGH SPEED
LOW SPEED)
The interval is
calculated using the
following formula:
(Transmission Interval
= FAST RATE x HI
SPEED ÷ Speed)
Operates
normally
Below the LOW
SPEED SLOW RATE Will not operate
Transmission Interval Example:
(with LOW SPEED = 5, HIGH SPEED = 70, SLOW RATE = 30
min, FAST RATE = 120 sec)
Speed Interval
80 120 seconds (2 minutes)
70 120 seconds (2 minutes)
50 168 seconds (2 minutes 48 seconds)
30 280 seconds (4 minutes 40 seconds)
20 420 seconds (7 minutes)
10 840 seconds (14 minutes)
5 1680 seconds (28 minutes)
0 1800 seconds (30 minutes)

• When the value of [Turn Threshold] exceeds 120º, it is calculated as
120º.
