Master Demystifying NC Contacts: Failsafe PLC Wiring! on the PLC. Step-by-step tutorial with real-world examples.
โก QUICK ANSWER
On the PLC, a timed delay is done with the TON (on-delay) timer: set the preset in milliseconds, drive the timer with your input condition, and use the timerโs done bit to switch the output. Use TOF for an off-delay and TONR when the accumulated time must survive a power cycle.

โ Hardware wiring and I/O connections
โ Timer instructions (TON, TOF) in ladder logic
โ Real-world tips from manufacturing experience
โ FREQUENTLY ASKED
Q: Whatโs the difference between TON and TOF?
A: TON delays turning ON โ the output energizes after the preset once the input is true. TOF delays turning OFF โ the output stays on for the preset after the input goes false.
Q: What units is the timer preset in?
A: On most AutomationDirect PLCs the preset is entered in milliseconds (5000 = 5 seconds). The full setup with screenshots is in the written guide.
