Relay Activation Mode

When a valid call is received the relay can be set to activate for a set period of time (set
by the RLYTIME command), to activate whilst the caller is ringing or to toggle between
states on each call. By default the relay mode is set for timed (pulsed) activation. To
switch to toggle mode the following message is sent to the system by the master number:
RLYMODE TOG GLE
To activate the relay for however long the caller rings (n.b. turn off voicemail!)
RLYMODE RING
To revert to timed (pulsed) mode the following message is sent:
RLYMODE PULSE

Relay Activation Time

The RLYTIME command is used to adjust the time the relay is active following a call when
RLYMODE is set to PULSE. By default the relay time is set to 3s. The time can be set from 1s
to 999 seconds or 1 to 999 minutes using this command.
To change the activation time the master number sends a SMS text message as follows:
RLYTIME seconds.
e.g. rlytime 10.
rlytime 250s
Rlytime 1m.
RLYTIME 960m.
3.7 On/Off and Open/Close Commands
The OPEN and ON commands are used to activate the relay with a SMS text message.
The CLOSE and OFF commands deactivate the relay, whether activated by the OPEN or
ON command or a call. When the ON command is sent without any additional instruc-
tions the relay is activated indefinitely.
(seconds) parameter the relay activates for a set period of time. The maximum number
length is three characters therefore the timer is limited to 999 seconds or 999 minutes. If
the m or s parameter is not sent then the timer value is read as the number of seconds.
The OPEN command will latch the relay for the time set by RLYTIME (as per a call)
When sent with additional time information the relay is activated for however many sec-
onds or minutes specified.
