Smart Relay Configuration

introduction the smartrelay offers two basic modes of operation stand alone and wireless in the standalone mode, the dip switches are used as a reference to configure the operation of the module in wireless mode, the command received from the controlling unit informs the module what to do operational modes the modes of operation are detailed below and are activated based on a binary code this enables 16 different settings or options while there are 16 operational modes, not all are implemented if the incorrect mode code is selected, then the module defaults to the default mode or stand alone mode dip switch setting operation description 0000 default mode stand alone the opto input triggers the relay when the input is active 0001 delay on when the opto input is triggered, the relay will only switch on after the designated time delay 0010 trigger off the relay contact is always on in the normally open position when the opto input is triggered, the relay will switch to the normally closed position 0011 delay trigger off when the opto input is triggered, the relay will switch to the normally closed position after the designated time delay 0100 pulse relay when the opto input is triggered, the relay pulses with the transistor static 0101 trigger relay, transistor pulse when the opto input is triggered, the relay goes high with the transistor pulsing 1111 wireless mode enabled in this setting, the opto input is used for alarm condition, and only triggers the low voltage transistor when an input is present the module relies on the wireless commands for operation configuring the mode the steps to configure or change the mode are as follows selecting the mode changing the dip switch settings restarting the device using the list above, it is important to consider what you want the smart relay to accomplish the most common or useful applications have been chosen and coded into the device if the required action or configuration is not available, this would then require custom code to be written for the smart relay and the device reprogrammed you can perform this upgrade on your own, or you can consult with us for assistance update the mode to change the mode of operation, do the following the changes will only come into effect after the smart relay has been restarted or power is lost and restored review the table above, and select the mode required the description provides information about how the mode will function read this carefully! using a small, thin screwdriver, move the dip switches into the correct positions to correspond with the code as described above before you reset the smart relay or remove power, review your cabling as the device will operate using the updated settings when it powers up rest smart relay or return power smart relay will now restart trouble shooting q on startup, smart relay was not operating as expected a double check that the dip switches are in the correct configuration, and then restart the device if a first restart does not work, remove power, check that the supplier voltage is correct ,and then return power
