Y92S-20 Battery
Use this battery with H7CN-M counters
with memory protection circuit. While the
counter's built-in memory protection circuit
can retain values for power failures lasting
up to 10 minutes, the optional battery
protects memory in case of a longer
power outage. We recommend using the
battery as a safeguard. Memory values
can be retained for up to 5 years.

Y92A-48D soft plastic cover fits snugly
over the front and allows settings to be
changed. These covers are intended for
use in areas where unusual service

Operation
SETTING THE COUNT PRESET
Use the four pushwheel switches on the
front panel to set the desired count. Firmly
push the switches to avoid having two
numbers appear in the display window.
This causes the operating time to drift
widely.
Do not change the setting while the
counter is powered up. It may cause a
momentary output to occur.
WARNING
Do not set all four digits to
zero. This causes a momentary
output to occur that may lead to
accidental injury or damage.
Undesirable settings
530 counts?
2530 counts?

Mounting
PANEL MOUNTING
Using Y92F-30 Adapter
Insert the counter through the panel
cutout. Push the Y92F-30 adapter from
the rear of the counter as far forward
toward the panel as possible. Push the
P3G-❑❑ socket onto the rear of the
counter. Then wire the socket. Tighten the
two retaining screws. To release the
adapter, lift the tab at the rear of the
adapter.
Mounting
The P2CF-❑❑ socket has two hooks that
secure the counter to the socket. Be sure
to allow at least 20 mm (0.79 in) clear-
ance above and below the socket to gain
access and to release the hooks for
servicing and maintenance. Insert counter
into the socket. Latch hooks. Then clip
rear of the socket to the track. Push the
bottom onto the track until the latch hooks
securely.
P2CF-❑❑ Socket
Removal
Pull the latch on the socket with a flat-
blade screwdriver and remove the counter
and socket as one unit.
Several counters may be panel mounted
close together using a Y92F-30 adapter
as shown here. When mounting two or
more counters in a vertical line, arrange
the adapters so that their molded tabs are
positioned on the right and left sides.
When mounting two or more counters in a
horizontal line, arrange the adapters so
that their molded tabs are positioned on
the top and bottom sides.
