NHRC- Programming and Operations Guide 

Status indicator LEDs show state of all channels, valid DTMF digit decode and the PTT line status. The status LEDs 
can be disabled for lower power consumption.  The NHRC  draws about 14mA @13.8V with the LED’s 
disabled making it ideal for solar powered applications.   

3 Commands 

There are 16 individual port on/off commands.  Each turns one of the eight outputs on or off. 

There are 4 programming commands: set configuration, load timers/data, program the Morse code ID message, and 
re-program commands. 

All of the commands can be re-programmed by the user for  increased security.  See section 3.2.4 for instructions on 
re-programming the command codes. 

In order to get you started easily, all commands have a “default” value set at the factory.  The default values can be 
restored by using the “initialization” process, described in section 3.3. 

Each command has a default value, and an “index”, which is used to reference the particular command when you 
want to re-program it.  Ignore the “index” value for now, it will be discussed later in the Programming Commands 
section.

Assuming the default command values have not been changed, you can command port 1 on by sending “11”, and 
command port 1 off by sending “10”.  You can command port 7 on by sending “71”.  As noted above, all of these 
commands can be re-programmed into ANY DTMF sequence, containing 1 to 8 of the DTMF codes 0-9, A-D, * and 
#.
