What differentiates this model from our other T-UP-Term units is its ability to display a full six digits, along with integrated shift digit technology that intelligently transitions how time is presented as the count increases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This unit is capable of displaying minutes, seconds, and tens of hundredths of a second during shorter durations. As uptime continues and longer intervals are reached, the display automatically shifts to showcase hours, minutes, and seconds. This allows users to clearly monitor both short-cycle events and extended runtimes without manual intervention, making the DC-106T-UP-TERM ideal for production tracking, process monitoring, and equipment uptime applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Operation of the DC-106T-UP-TERM is managed through customer-supplied plug-and-play devices connected directly to the opto base board. The unit is powered using a 12V wall adapter, while uptime control is handled through the external devices provided by the customer. In this demonstration, momentary plug-and-play push button switches are connected through the terminal block on the opto base board, with each button assigned a specific function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The available plug-and-play momentary switch functions include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Start and stop control<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Reset and start control<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Reset to zero control<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>When the start button is pressed, the timer immediately begins counting upward, displaying tens of hundredths of a second, seconds, and minutes. Pressing the same button again pauses the count, and pressing it once more resumes timing. The reset and start function clears the current count and immediately begins a new timing cycle, allowing this process to be repeated indefinitely. While the timer is paused, the reset-to-zero button can be used to clear the display and prepare the unit for the next cycle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From a hardware perspective, the DC-106T-UP-TERM is built for durability and long-term industrial use. The enclosure is constructed from tough 14-gauge aluminum and finished with a fingerprint-resistant black powder coat. The 1-inch display digits are clearly visible from distances of up to 25 feet, ensuring readability in a wide range of environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Key hardware and performance features include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Six-digit display with shift digit technology<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Displays minutes, seconds, tens of hundredths, and automatically shifts to hours, minutes, and seconds<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Maximum count of 99 hours, 59 minutes, and 59 seconds<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1-inch digit height with up to 25-foot viewing distance<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>120\u2013240 VAC wall adapter power input<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Optional 24 VDC power input in place of the wall adapter<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rear-mounted teardrop knockout slots for easy wall mounting<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>For accessories and input flexibility, the included opto board supplies 5 to 30 VDC for momentary PNP power source inputs and also supports momentary dry contact closures across terminals one, two, and three. This provides compatibility with a wide range of external control devices, making the DC-106T-UP-TERM a versatile and reliable solution for uptime monitoring across multiple applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>See similar product: <a href=\"https:\/\/dc-digital.com\/store\/DC-10T-DN-NEMA-1-Inch-LED-Push-Button-Controlled-Digital-Countdown-Timer-Nema-4X-Enclosure.html\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/dc-digital.com\/store\/DC-10T-DN-NEMA-1-Inch-LED-Push-Button-Controlled-Digital-Countdown-Timer-Nema-4X-Enclosure.html\">DC-10T-DN-NEMA<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Watch tutorial video on <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/-NeRCUyLXSk\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/-NeRCUyLXSk\">YouTube<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Visit <a href=\"https:\/\/dc-digital.com\/store\/index.php\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/dc-digital.com\/store\/index.php\">DC-Digital website<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dc-digital.com\/store\/contact-us.php\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/dc-digital.com\/store\/contact-us.php\">Contact us<\/a> to ask about our customized products!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The DC-106T-UP-TERM is a new standard model within our DC-10T-UP-Term product line, designed to provide expanded visibility and greater timing precision for uptime tracking applications.
