Hey person, the good people are not here for your benefit, just to asking an arbitrary question. We are not students who have to justify our answer. We are not here just to answer questions, this forum was designed for discussion, not homework or work-work related. Try by saying. "Sorry, can't find... need help... lost...can't figure out...

The guys are starting to lose patients with this type of question and soon nobody will answer, so tell your buds, buck up!!

Sure sounds like homework to me and if it is I truely doubt that he will understand your diagram. I on the other hand love it. very simple and to the point.

Well fellow members, I'm quite sure it is homework. I just went to his member profile and every post has been a electrical question. So I recommend we stopped doing his homework for him.

They're already enough dumb engineers and electricians out there we don't need to promote one more especially in this field, incompetence often leads to a shocking experience.

"Define with diagram" Could only be homework, probably right out of the book.

Yep, " I just went to his member profile" is a smart thing to do. I do it lots. You can tell quickly if they're just lazy, by the quality of their questions.

SometimeS, you can see that it's just a simple question amoung regualr questions, sometimes it yells HOMEWORK!!

Cheers

I personally don't mind helping a student that is stuck, but you're absolutely right you can tell whether there just stuck, or lazy. There is no doubt about this one.

How about just pointing him in the right direction.
Amit! Think about what each word in your "On delay" / Off delay" implies. Your talking electrical or electronics, Voltage, Blah Blah Blah. Something is either delayed to go on or off depending on what you are running. If you set the alarm to your house to on, would you really want it to start upon pressing your code in, or would you give yourself time to at least get out of the house?
Now is this ON delay or OFF delay???? And how would this look as an electrical schematic or electronic?
