Redback® A 6500 Programming Guide
14.0 SERIAL COMMANDS FOR THIRD PARTY CONTROL OF THE A6510 AND A 6515
The Redback® A6510 and 6515 relay boxes can both operate without the need for the Redback® A 6500 wall plate or
the Redback® A 6505 serial hub.
Third party control is achieved by sending serial commands to the RS232 or RS485 inputs of the A6510 or A 6515 as
shown in figure 14.1.
The serial data sent has to transmitted at 9600 baud, with the stop bit set to 1, data bits to 8 , parity to none and the
format must be ASCII.
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 13, the code would be RELAYI13. To toggle relay 14, the code would be RELAYT14 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
