Relay automation
There are a set of control boxes that provide for autonomous relay operation. If you just want
to control the relays from the webpage or using one of the TCP/IP modes, then leave these
boxes blank.
Relay No. box
This selects the relay you wish to configure. On other dS modules this is to connect virtual re-
lays to the I/O ports, however as the dS2832 has all 32 relay slots occupied there are no vir-
tual relays. Relays can still connected to an I/O port, but on the dS2832 it provides limited ad-
ditional function.
Pulse/Follow box
If you place a number in this box then that is the pulse time for the relay in mS (1000mS = 1
second). The minimum value is 100mS. The maximum is 2147483647 (more than 24 days).
When the relay is toggled on, timing begins and at the end of the time period the relay goes
off again. If the button is pressed again during timing then the timing is restarted.
The above example will turn off the yard lights after 30 minutes. 1800000 mS is 1800 seconds.
1800 seconds is 30 minutes.
It also possible to insert a boolean equation into the box. Boolean equations are just simple
equations that evaluate to a 0 or 1.
For example Relay 1 is referred to a R1. Input1 is referred to as D1 (Digital 1). Analogue input
1 is referred to as A1.
