Monostable cam
(Original Document)
Definition
A Monostable type cam is one that changes to 1 when a threshold is crossed and returns to 0 after a time delay.
It is characterized by:
NOTE:
  • The confirmation condition must be at state 1 for the time delay to be set when the threshold is crossed. If the confirmation condition changes to 0, the time delay in progress ends normally.
  • If the time delay is in progress at a new crossing of threshold X1, the time delay is reset with the setpoint value. The output remains at 1.
