The factory preset assignment for the relay is as the global error output signal
(see the Mint keyword
GLOBALERROROUTPUT
). When an error occurs the relay
is de-energized and the contacts open. When the error is cleared, the relay is
re-energized and the contacts close. The relay can be also be controlled
directly by the Mint keyword
RELAY
. When the relay is energized (
RELAY=_on
)
the contacts close. When the relay is de-energized (
RELAY=_off
) the contacts
open. The relay output may also be considered as a digital output, so can be
controlled directly using the Mint keyword
OUTX
(for example
OUTX.3=1
).

operation. If relay operations are required more frequently than 4 - 5 times per
hour, it is recommended to use one of the digital outputs to control a replaceable
external relay.
