basic delay box

Maverick · 07-11-2015, 08:36 PM

I am doing some research for a single function delay box that will delay the signal to trigger the launch. I don't need a throttle controller, or a SLE. Just a delay box that you can change the delay quickly, and I don't need bump up on bump down and no crossover function. I don't know how the signal for the trans brake works whether it is a high signal or a low signal. It would be nice if I could have the input and output, to be active hi or active low in or out, in other words selectable. This is of course not for a trans brake car. Just doing the research, and I really don't know if it will work in my application. SteveWilliams

Calling biondo Monday

I have a dedenbear rt6 you could try

Thanks, but after talking with Biondo, the basic box won't work the way I want. The basic box takes a high to trigger a high out. All my stuff is low to trigger. Over the winter I will contemplate it some more

You can always use the high output of the delay box to trigger a relay and have the relay pass the low signal through it.

I don't understand that. It will switch whatever you input into it like a relay

If you need the output of the box to be neg (gnd), you run the neg through the NO contacts (to control what you want) and apply neg to one side of the coil on the relay and use the 12V output from the delay box to trigger the relay to send your gnd where ever you want it.

First off, I not sure you are asking me, or the other person who asked the question. But you did say something that I wanted to hear. And that is you can have a active low out of the delay box, or a active high out of the delay box, depending on what box you have. I called biondo, and the guy I talked to say 12 volt to activate the 12 volts out. He stated all delay boxes were this way. That is when I gave up on it for a while. We have met before at Indy a few years back, and my car is not the norm. I don't have a trans brake, I have a clutch and run S/G. If you know the box that you can change the output to ground and have 12 volts to the coil, I would appreciate the info. All the stuff on my car is hot on the coil side and it take a ground to activate it. Adding a relay is OK, but I am trying just to use a box. I might use a SSR because of no moving parts. But it is just more stuff.

Steve,
I do remember you and your Lenco. LOL. I was think about the Biono boxes changing the output from NC to NO for the throttle stop control timers. The relay is very very simple to connect.
