I'm pretty new at this. I've attached a PDF file. Open the file and take a look at my little program. I wanted to
turn "OUPUT O:2/10" ON for a little bit and then back OFF
after a few minutes. And then the whole process repeats itself. I was hoping to get some advise/comments in order to improve. Thanks for your help and advise.

The only problem I see is the fact that the first timer is acting independently to the rest of the timing.

Replace the normally closed timer bit in the first network to a normally closed of the output.
 
Using the basics of what you have, I would change a bit more than PeterW.

I would change the T4:0/DN XIO bit in rung 0, to T4:1/DN XIO

In Rung 1, I would use only the T4:0/DN XIC to hold O:2/10 on

In Rung 2, I would then use T4:0/DN XIC to activate T4:1

T4:0 and T4:1 would then toggle each other on and off.

But hey, we all have our own styles.

As you have it written, the first time thru, O:2/10 would delay 300 seconds, then turn on for 100 secs. after that, it would be 200 secs off, then 100 secs on.

lol, we all have our own styles (y)

I didn't set out to re-design the OP's software, just correct what they have to make it do as they intend (the same outcome as what yours does), my style would be completely different too:beer: lol
