[TowerTalk] Why time delay on UST MDPL?

[ny9h]

I may be coming in late on this ,,,
my MDPL ,,, a manual control,  without their remote .......would 
continue upward if one flicks the manual switch downward quickly. The 
only apparent change is that one has switched the limit switches,, 
now engaging the bottom limit switch.   And that seems to me to allow 
the tower to continue upward...past the top limit switch, toward the 
mechanical stop. OOPSs...
I made my own remote and incorporated several time delay relays to 
allow the motor to come to a stop,,, before going any direction. Once 
stopped, the motor would reverse if switched to do so .
