Redback® A 6500 Programming Guide
13.0 SETTING COMMANDS FOR EXPANDED RELAY SYSTEMS USING THE A 6505 and
A6510 or A 6515
In order to make use of the expanded relay outputs of the Redback® A6510 or A 6515 when using the A 6505 serial hub
(see fig 13.2 and 13.3), specific wiring is required and certain serial commands have to be sent. This is to avoid clashes
with the relay outputs of the A 6505 serial hub which makes use of the standard relay commands.
13.1 SERIAL COMMANDS TO CONTROL A 6510 RELAYS
Follow the same steps as outlined in section 9.0 to create a new serial command for a button through the Add New Com-
mand window.
There are three options for the state of the external relays, ON, OFF or Toggle.
Specific ASCII codes have to be sent to switch the desired relays.
Figure 13.1 illustrates the settings required to toggle relay 1 on the A 6510.
The speed is set to 9600 baud, the stop bit to 1, data bits to 8 , parity to none and the format must be ASCII.
The port is set to match the output port used on the A 6505 serial hub.

The code to be sent is quite simple.
The code starts with the word RELAY followed by
T for toggle (this alternates the state of the relay
with each press).
O (capital o) for OFF (this turns the relay Off).
I (capital i) for ON (this turns the relay On).
followed by the relay number.
So for instance to turn on relay 5, the code would
be RELAYI5. To toggle relay 12, the code would be
RELAYT12 and so on.
It is also possible to turn all relays ON or OFF by
using the standard format of O (capital o) for OFF, I
(capital i) for ON and then by using the number 99
as the relay number.
so the command RELAYI99 will turn all relays ON
and the command RELAYO99 will turn all relays OFF

NOTE : Only one DIP swiitch can be
set to ON.
DIP Switch 1 must be set to ON
when using the RS485 input of the
A 6510.
DIP Switch 2 must be set to ON
when using the RS232 input of the
A 6510.
All other DIP switches must be OFF.
