Multi-Stage Output Control

Multi-stage outputs can be controlled in three different ways:

In sequential mode, all stages of a load must be on before a new load can be started. Fig. 10 shows an example of 2 loads each with 3 stages (SEQ-05 = 3). In sequential mode, the total number of stages then is 6.

In parallel mode, all 1st stages of all loads must be on before a load will start the 2nd stage. Fig. 11 shows an example of 2 loads each with 3 stages (SEQ-05 = 3). In parallel modem, the total number of stages then is 6.

In tandem mode, all loads have the same stage commanded.

Fig. 12 shows an example of 2 loads each with 3 stages (SEQ-05 = 3). In tandem mode the total number of stages is 3.
