1. DESCRIPTION
The BA574G is a eld mounting general purpose, instrument
which can be congured as a Timer or as a Clock. As a
Timer the BA574G can measure and display the elapsed time
between external events, or control external events via two
optional factory tted control outputs. When congured as a
Clock the BA574G displays local time and the optional control
outputs can turn on and o twice in each 24 hour period.
This abbreviated instruction sheet is intended to assist with
installation, a comprehensive instruction manual describing
system design and conguration may be downloaded from
the BEKA website or may be requested from the BEKA sales
oce.
2. INSTALLATION
The BA574G Timer or Clock has a robust IP66 glass reinforced
polyester (GRP) carbon loaded enclosure incorporating
an armoured glass window and stainless steel ttings. It
is suitable for exterior surface mounting in most industrial
environments, or pipe mounting using an accessory kit.
If the enclosure is not bolted to an earthed post or structure,
the earth terminal on the cable entry bonding plate, which
may be assembled on the inside or outside of the enclosure,
should be connected to local earthed metalwork or to the
plant’s potential equalising conductor.
Terminals A1, A2, A3 and A4 are only tted when the Timer
or Clock includes optional control outputs. See full manual
for details.
Step C
Remove the temporary
hole plug and install an
appropriate IP rated cable
gland or conduit fitting.
Feed the field wiring
through the cable entry.
Step D
Terminate field wiring on the
instrument assembly. Replace
the assembly on the enclosure
back-box and tighten the four
'A' screws.
Step B
Secure the enclosure
back-box to a flat surface
with M6 screws through
the four 'B' holes. Alternatively
use a pipe mounting kit.
Step A
Unscrew the four captive
'A' screws and separate
the indicator assembly
and the back-box.

Scale card
The instrument’s units of measurement and tag information
are shown above the display on a slide-in scale card.
New instruments are tted with a scale card showing the
information specied when the instrument was ordered, if this
was not provided a blank scale card will be tted which can
easily be marked on-site. Custom printed scale cards are
available from BEKA associates.
To remove the scale card carefully pull the tab perpendicularly
away from the instrument assembly. See Fig 2 for the location
of the scale card tab.

Fig 4 Inserting scale card into instrument assembly
To replace the scale card carefully insert it into the slot shown
in Fig 2. Force should be applied evenly to both sides of the
scale card to prevent it twisting. The card should be inserted
until about 2mm of the transparent tab remains protruding.
3. OPERATION
The BA574G is controlled and congured via four front panel
push buttons. When congured as a Timer the push button
functions are:
& When local control is enabled starts the Timer
* When local control is enabled stops the Timer
) + * Shows the grand total (run time) in hours and tenths
of an hour irrespective of Timer conguration. If
buttons are held for longer than ten seconds the
grand total may be reset to zero if the grand total
reset sub-function Glr gtot is enabled in the
LoC r5Et conguration function.
To reset the grand total to zero from the display
mode press the ) + * buttons for ten seconds
until CLr. no is displayed. Using the & or *
button change the display to CLr. YE5 and press ).
& + * Resets the Timer to zero or to the set time 5Et t
depending on whether the Timer is congured to
time-up or time-down when the two buttons are
operated simultaneously for more than three
seconds. This is a congurable function.
( + * When enabled in the conguration menu, operating
these two buttons simultaneously provides direct
access from the display mode to the set time 5Et t
and, if the repeat timing cycle is enabled, to the
restart delay r5t dela.
