3. Istruzioni per l'installazione

Follow these steps to set up your Cuifati Relay Module:

1. Collegamento dell'alimentazione: Connect a DC power supply within the range of 7V to 38V to the designated power input terminals on the module. Ensure correct polarity.
2. Connessione USB: Connect the module to your computer using a standard USB cable. The USB port is located on the side of the board.
3. Installazione del driver (se richiesto): Depending on your operating system, you may need to install specific drivers for the USB interface. Refer to your operating system's documentation or the manufacturer's website for driver availability.
4. Connessione di carico: Connect the electrical equipment you wish to control to the relay terminal blocks. Each relay has three terminals: Common (COM), Normally Open (NO), and Normally Closed (NC). Refer to the circuit diagram for your specific application.

4. Funzionamento del modulo

Once the module is set up, you can operate it via your computer:

• Controllo software: The module is controlled via USB. You will need to use compatible software or develop custom code to send commands to the module and activate/deactivate the relays. This manual does not provide specific software or programming instructions.
• Indicatori LED: Observe the LED indicators for operational status. The power LED indicates that the module is receiving power. Each relay has an associated LED that illuminates when the relay is activated.
• Relay Switching: When a relay is activated, its contacts will switch from their default state (Normally Closed to Common) to the activated state (Normally Open to Common).
