Long Range Wireless Relay 1-Channel 20-Amp ProXR Lite

Wireless Relay Control

Long Range Wireless Industrial Mesh

Long-Range Wireless Mesh networking is the ONLY communications technology NCD recommends on the factory floor, operating at a safe 900MHz.  Mesh technology will hop data from one location to another to reach its intended destination, users do not need to do anything other than make sure wireless modules stay within hopping range of each other.  We use the Digi 900HP-S3B module in many of our products, as this is the best industry has to offer.  With a 2 mile range between modules and up to 8 hops, it is possible to cover 16 miles of wireless territory using this technology.  Using high-gain antennas, this module is capable of communicating to a remote module up to 28 miles away!  Please note that data hopping only works between live devices.  Data will hop from sensors to gateways and modems.  Data will also hop between gateways and modems.

Long Range Wireless

XBee-PRO 900HP embedded modules provide best-in-class range wireless connectivity to devices. They are easy to setup and use, reliable and capable of transmitting a ling distance.  You will need an 900MHz modem that plugs into your USB port of your computer to talk any number of boards with a standard range of 2-miles and up to 15 miles.  You can choose the distance of the module installed at checkout.

XBee-PRO 900 RF Module

This board is equipped with an 900HP Module.  The XBee-PRO 900 RF module is ideally suited for less power-hungry, low-latency point-to-multipoint networking applications.  Capable of point-to-point, peer-to-peer and point-to-multipoint networking, The XBee-900 modules have a higher selectable transmitting power of 250mW.  This higher TX power allows for line-of-sight range up to 28 miles with the right antenna.  It is ideal for solutions where RF penetration and absolute transmission distance are paramount to the application.

Line-Of-Site Operation

As with any wireless technologies, for optimal performance it needs to be line-of-sight.  In other words the antennas of the board and modem must "see" each other to get the optimal range or even be able to communicate at all.  Mounting slots on the modem make it easy to attach to a wall to allow for line-of-site operation.

Standard Range Antenna

The XSC900SR Standard Range Antenna (distance of 2 miles) is included with the price of the controller.  The included antenna is a 6" whip antenna with an RP-SMA threaded connection.  The antenna will screw directly onto the wireless module.  NCD has tested this device at 2 Miles with excellent results using smaller antennas than what would be required to achieve the 28-Mile range achieved by the manufacturer.  All range tests are conducted in clear line-of-sight installations.  It is not possible for us to accurately predict range prior to purchase.  We cannot predict range inside buildings, using google map images, or predict interference that may be present at your location that would prohibit proper operation.

900MHz Wireless Modem

Plug the UXSCMSR_ZIGMO short range modem or UXSCMLR_ZIGMO long range modem into the USB Port of your computer.  The modem will mount as a COM port on your PC.  Open the COM port and start sending data to the modem.  The modem will forward your data to all Wireless XSC compliant devices within range (it is also possible to speak to a specific device when other controllers are in range).  The modem is also available at checkout.
XSC Modem

Sending Commands

Base Station Software is available at no charge to get you up and running fast (more on Base Station below).  Once powered up, the controller waits for a ProXR command.  A command consists of a few bytes of data in numerical format usually between 2 and 6 bytes.  Once the command has been received, the controller processes the command, and sends you back ASCII character code 85 to signal the completion of your command.

Relay Activator and Analog Inputs

The Relay Activator control panel lets you use analog inputs to directly control onboard relays. Just connect buttons or switches to the analog inputs and trigger simple on/off actions for manual relay control. Each of the eight inputs can be assigned one of eight functions, including turning relays on or off, toggling relay states, flashing a relay momentarily, toggling the flash function, turning all relays on, turning all relays off, or generating push-notification events using N-Button Software. Click the gray Relay Logic tab and check out Example 6 to see how to wire a manual switch into your setup. Download the Relay Activator Quick Start Guide here: Relay Activator Quick Start Guide.

SPDT Relay Installed

This MirC model is equipped with an SPDT (Single Pole, Double Throw) relay, giving you three connection points: Common (COM), Normally Open (NO), and Normally Closed (NC).

• When the relay is off, COM is connected to NC
• When the relay is energized, COM switches over to NO

This gives you flexibility to wire your load to either the Normally Open or Normally Closed contact depending on how you want the device to behave. Examples of wiring methods can be found in the gray Relay Logic tab.

The Common (COM) terminal is the moving contact inside the relay. When the coil energizes, it physically swings from NC to NO. Wiring is done directly to the relay using standard 1/4" quick-disconnect terminals. (Shown at right.)

---

Amperage Rating

The installed relay is rated for 20 amps on the Normally Open (NO) contact and 10 amps on the Normally Closed (NC) contact.

⚠️ Best Practice:
For high-current loads, always use the Normally Open (NO) contact. The Normally Closed (NC) contact is limited to 10 amps and should only be used for lower-current applications.

---

2 Million+ Cycles

ProXR relays are built for longevity - expect years of reliable operation and millions of mechanical cycles. Every board ships with a 5-year warranty and 30-day money-back guarantee.

---

Not Expandable (By Design)

ProXR Lite keeps things simple.
Unlike the full ProXR Series, Lite boards do not support relay expansion. While the firmware still reports up to 256 potential relays, only the first 1, 2, 4, or 8 relays in Bank 1 are active depending on the model you choose.

Induction Suppression

One of the most important parts of relay control - yet the most commonly overlooked - is inductive load protection.

Anything with a magnetic coil (motors, solenoids, transformers, etc.) generates high-voltage "kickback" when switched. Without a suppression capacitor, that spike can:

• Shorten relay lifespan
• Cause electrical noise that disrupts the microcontroller
• Trigger unexpected shutdowns
• Require power cycling to restore communication

Adding an induction suppression capacitor protects your relay contacts and keeps everything running smoothly. Capacitors are available at checkout, and our Induction Suppression Page has wiring diagrams and more details.

The ProXR Command Set

ProXR Firmware

The firmware on the Ethernet Relay board supports the ProXR Command Set, offering more commands and functionality than any other relay board on the market! The list of available commands and parameters is extensive, giving you full control. You can write your own control program in almost any programming language.

Key Features

• Extensive Command Set: More commands and functionality than any other relay board.
• Programming Flexibility: Compatible with nearly any programming language.
• User-Friendly Software: Free software available for non-programmers to easily control relays without coding.

Introduction

The ProXR Series Controllers allow you to control up to 2048 relays depending on your controller model.  Relays are divided into groups of 8 called banks, and are addressed by their bank number.  For instance, a ProXR series controller with 32 on-board relays has four on-board banks, the on-board relays respond to bank values of 1-4.  If you use the XR Expansion port to add another bank of 24 relays, then you will need to specify bank values of 5-7 to control the extra relays.  The firmware doesn’t actually know how many relays are attached to the relay controller, it is up to the user to define how many relays are attached to the controller using Base Station Software.  The ProXR CPU will assume you have connected the maximum number of supported relays to your controller.  In the ProXR Quick Start Guide, you will see two commands that appear to do the same thing, for example:

  254 0-7 Turn Off Individual Relays
  254 100-107 Bank# Turn Off Individual Relays in Bank
  254 8-15 Turn On Individual Relays
  254 108-115 Turn On Individual Relays in Bank
  254 16-23 Get the Status of an Individual Relay
  254 116-123 Bank# Get the Status of an Individual Relay in Bank
While the outcome is the same, these commands function in slightly different ways.

For instance:
  254 8 Turn On Relay 1
To make this command work, you will send a 254, then a 8 to activate a relay. By default, relay bank 1 will be affected by this command. However, you can redirect this command to a different relay bank using the following command:
  254 49 2  Direct Commands to Relay Bank 2
Then you can send:
  254 8 Turn On Relay 1 in Bank 2

Here are a few more Bank Specified Examples:
  254 49 1 Direct Commands to Relay Bank 1
  254 8 Turn On Relay 1 in Bank 1
  254 49 2 Direct Commands to Relay Bank 2
  254 8 Turn On Relay 1 in Bank 2
  254 9 Turn On Relay 2 in Bank 2
  254 10 Turn On Relay 3 in Bank 2
  254 49 3 Direct Commands to Relay Bank 3
  254 8 Turn On Relay 1 in Bank 3
  254 11 Turn On Relay 4 in Bank 3
  254 12 Turn On Relay 5 in Bank 3
  254 13 Turn On Relay 6 in Bank 3
  254 14 Turn On Relay 7 in Bank 3
  254 49 0 Direct Commands to All Relay Banks
  254 8 Turn On Relay 1 in All Relay Banks

This command structure has the advantage of being very fast and efficient. However, if power to the controller is ever lost, commands will automatically be directed to bank 1 when power to the controller has been restored. This command methodology is generally advisable for ProXR controllers with 8 or fewer relays. When working with more than 8 relays, we generally advise users to use Bank Directed commands as shown in the following examples.

Turns Off Relays in the Currently Selected Relay Bank

This command will control the Off status of specified relays in the Currently Selected Relay Bank.  This command has optional parameters <1-7> for controlling the Off status of the remaining relays, 1 being the next relay in sequence, 2-7 being all possible subsequent relays in the selected relay bank.  A value of 0 refers to the first relay in the specified relay bank, 7 being the 8th and final relay of the selected Relay Bank. This command sends byte value 85 back to the user when the operation has been completed.

Send Bytes:	Byte 1:	Byte 2:	Byte 3:
Function:	Command	Command	Optional Parameters
Decimal Values:	254	0-7	1-7
Hex Values	0xFE	0x00 - 0x07	0x01 - 0x07
Receive Byte:	Decimal:	85
	Hex:	0x55

Turns On Relays in the Currently Selected Relay Bank

This command will control the On status of specified relays in the Currently Selected Relay Bank.  This command has optional parameters <1-7> for controlling the On status of the remaining relays, 1 being the next relay in sequence, 2-7 being all possible subsequent relays in the selected relay bank.  A value of 0 refers to the first relay in the specified relay bank, 7 being the 8th and final relay of the selected Relay Bank.  This command sends byte value 85 back to the user when the operation has been completed.

Send Bytes:	Byte 1:	Byte 2:	Byte 3:
Function:	Command	Command	Optional Parameters
Decimal Values:	254	8-15	1-7
Hex Values	0xFE	0x08 - 0x0F	0x01 - 0x07
Receive Byte:	Decimal:	85
	Hex:	0x55

Read the Status of Relays in the Currently Selected Relay Bank

This command will report the On/Off status of Relays 0-7 in the Currently Selected Relay Bank.  This command sends byte value of 0 of 1 back to the user when the operation has been completed, 0 reporting an Off status and 1 reporting an On status.

Send Bytes:	Byte 1:	Byte 2:
Function:	Command	Command
Decimal Values:	254	16-23
Hex Values	0xFE	0x10 - 0x17
Receive Byte:	Decimal:	0 or 1
	Hex:	0x00 or 0x01

Full Command Set

These are only a few examples from the ProXR Command set so you can get an idea of the command structure.  Download the ProXR Quick Start Guide to view the full command set ProXR Quick Start Guide.

Base Station Software

Base Station Software was designed to help you learn the ProXR command set!  No other relay board manufacturer even comes close to offering this type of software!  Explore ProXR features using it's Graphical User Interface.  Watch data bytes flow to and from the board, so you easily understand the command execution process.  There is no faster or easier way to learn how to automate than Base Station, as it was designed to work with all the communication modules we offer!  You only need a Windows 8 or 10 Computer to Run Base Station. 

Base Station Features

There are some useful features to look for when using Base Station Software to control, test, or configure your device:

• At the bottom left corner of each window there is a link to relevant documentation for your device
• In the Control Command Set Window, and many others, there is a MORE or LESS option at the top right corner.  Selecting MORE allows you to view specific communication details.
• All the functions of the command set are available as a point-and-click interface plus you can see the command that is being sent to the board!

The AD8 Command Set

Reading Switches/Variable Resistance Signals

This controller includes eight channels of 8/10-bit Analog-to-Digital Converters capable of reading 0 - 5V DC signals. The ADCs allow you to monitor external sensors or detect contact-closure inputs. Connect temperature sensors, light sensors, current sensors, buttons, switches, or any device that outputs a 0 - 5V signal or simple contact closure.

• With 8-bit resolution, inputs convert 0 - 5V into values from 0 to 255
• With 10-bit resolution, values range from 0 to 1023

Resolution is software-selectable. Request an analog value from the controller and it responds instantly.

---

A/D Inputs

All ProXR Lite boards and ProXR boards that begin with ZADR or ZADSR include an onboard 8-channel Analog-to-Digital converter in addition to relay control. Each channel accepts a 0-5V DC input and converts it into a numeric value for processing.

Using the AD8 Command Set, analog voltages are translated into digital values (8- or 10-bit resolution, depending on configuration), making it easy to monitor and act on sensor data from a wide range of devices.

Each analog input can be configured to turn relays ON or OFF, toggle relay states, flash relays, enable or disable flashing, send push-notification data, and more - all based on live input values read in real time.

As shown in the graphic, ProXR AD8 controllers are available with multiple analog input connector options. One of the connector styles shown corresponds to the specific board you are viewing, allowing you to quickly identify how sensors will physically connect. All analog inputs share a common ground, simplifying wiring and making it easy to connect multiple sensors to a single controller.

Once connected, A/D input values can be used consistently across N-Button and Base Station software for automation, relay control, monitoring, and diagnostics. This unified approach ensures predictable behavior from hardware to software, whether you are building a simple monitoring system or a fully automated control solution.

---

Analog Inputs Controlling Relays

ProXR AD8 relay controllers allow analog inputs to directly control onboard relays using the same A/D input data used by N-Button and Base Station software (see Relay Activator section below). This makes it easy to monitor sensor values, automate relay behavior, and visualize input data across all supported software tools.

---

Analog to Digital Connections

AD8 controllers are designed for stable sensor and switch monitoring. A/D inputs should never be left floating - each input must connect to a voltage or ground.

A built-in 10K pull-up/pull-down resistor (jumper-selectable) ties each input to +5V or ground to prevent floating conditions. While this resistor adds slight loading, the improved stability far outweighs any minor interference.

---

AD8 Command Set

The AD8 Command Set reads analog voltages using the controller's 8-channel 8/10-bit ADC.

• 8-bit mode: Converts 0 - 5V to values from 0 to 255
• 10-bit mode: Converts 0 - 5V to values from 0 to 1023

Because 10-bit values transmit as two bytes (MSB and LSB), reconstruct the full reading using: 10BitValue = (MSB - 256) + LSB

Reads the 8-Bit Analog Input of Channels

This command will read the Analog Input of Channels 1-8 and return an 8-bit value for each.

Send Bytes:	Byte 1:	Byte 2:
Function:	Command	Parameter (Channel 1-8)
Decimal Values:	254	150-157
Hex Values	0xFE	0x96 - 0x9D
Receive Byte:	Decimal:	0-255
	Hex:	0x00-0xFF

These are just a few examples from the AD8 Command Set to help illustrate the command structure. For the complete list of commands, download the AD Quick Start Guide.

---

View A/D Input Data in Real Time

Base Station software allows you to read all analog inputs in real time while clearly displaying the exact command data being sent to and from the controller. In the example shown, all eight A/D input channels are read simultaneously and displayed as live numeric values along with a real-time graph, making it easy to visualize how each input changes over time.

Because Base Station shows the actual commands used to read the A/D inputs, it becomes an invaluable learning and diagnostic tool. You can see precisely how input values are requested, returned, and interpreted by the controller, then copy those commands directly into your own applications or custom software. This dramatically simplifies development, testing, and troubleshooting when integrating A/D inputs into larger systems.

Whether you are validating sensor behavior, monitoring multiple inputs at once, or building your own custom control software, Base Station gives you clear visibility into both the data and the communication behind it.

Relay Activator

Relay Activator and Analog Inputs

Base Station Software's Relay Activator is ideal for applications that primarily rely on computer control but still require occasional manual operation. By connecting external buttons or switches, you can take direct, hands-on control of any relay without giving up software-based control.

This creates true bi-directional control. For example, a relay can be turned ON through the computer interface and later turned OFF using a physical switch - or vice versa. Whether you're testing, troubleshooting, or building a hybrid manual/software-controlled system, Relay Activator keeps everything synchronized and predictable.

As shown in the example, each input includes a pull-down menu that allows you to select exactly how that input will control a relay. This makes configuration fast and intuitive - simply choose the desired action for each input without writing any code.

Each of the 8 input channels can be configured to control relays 1 through 8, with multiple action types available. This flexibility allows every input to perform exactly the function your application requires.

Available Relay Actions per Input
Each input can be assigned one of the following actions:

• Momentary Control - Activates the relay only while the input is engaged
• Toggle Relay State - Alternates the relay between ON and OFF
• Turn Relay ON - Forces the relay into the ON state
• Turn Relay OFF - Forces the relay into the OFF state
• Flash Relay (Momentary) - Pulses the relay while the input is active
• Flash Relay (Toggle) - Toggles flashing behavior ON and OFF

This level of control makes Relay Activator perfect for operator panels, test benches, safety overrides, and any application where manual interaction and software automation need to work together seamlessly.

N-Button Software

Using A/D Inputs with N-Button

N-Button Lite and Pro support powerful A/D Input Automation rules that allow you to automatically control relays based on analog input levels. Simply define a voltage threshold or range, and N-Button will energize or de-energize relays as conditions change.

N-Button also supports Send Email and Text Message actions (Push Notifications), enabling automatic alerts when an A/D input reaches a specific level or falls within a defined range. Relay control and notifications can work together seamlessly, all driven by live A/D input data.

---

Works Seamlessly with N-Button Software

Each A/D channel supports industry-standard 0-5V inputs, making it simple to integrate a wide range of sensors without extra hardware. Using N-Button, you can:

• Build desktop meters that show real-time sensor data
• Create dashboards with multiple sensor feeds
• Trigger Push Notification alerts from A/D thresholds
• Control relays based on sensor conditions - no programming required

---

Using the Input Information

N-Button allows you to use A/D input values in multiple ways without writing code. Numeric values or value ranges can be used to:

• Trigger text or email alerts when thresholds are exceeded
• Control individual relays or banks of relays
• Display live readings on customizable desktop meters

For example, when an input value rises above 125, a relay can automatically energize or a notification can be sent. You can also define a valid operating range where a relay remains on, and automatically turns off if the value moves above or below that range.

---

Control Relays with A/D Inputs

N-Button Lite/Pro software makes it incredibly easy to automate relay control using A/D input levels from this board. Simply create an Automation rule that links any A/D input channel to any relay channel. When the input voltage reaches the threshold you define, the relay energizes (turns on). When the input drops below that threshold, the relay de-energizes (turns off). No programming required.

---

Precision + Performance

High-resolution readings ensure accurate measurements, even in demanding environments. Stream live data or automate actions based on your input thresholds.

---

Create Desktop Meters

N-Button software lets you build live desktop meters that display real-time readings from the AD8 inputs, giving you constant visibility of your sensor data right on your screen. In the example shown, a "Live Soil Moisture Reading" meter provides instant feedback on soil conditions. Right below the meter, Relay 1 and Relay 2 buttons allow you to manually control relays directly from your desktop, or see their current status at a glance - the buttons change color to indicate whether a relay is on or off, giving you a complete view of your system in real time.

Each meter can be individually labeled, like the "Soil Moisture" label shown, making it easy to identify each sensor at a glance. Meter increments are fully customizable - the "Customizable Increments" callout shows how you can adjust the scale to match your application, whether you need fine-grained precision or a broader overview.

N-Button also allows you to arrange multiple meters on your desktop, creating a personalized dashboard that updates in real time. This makes it simple to compare different sensors side by side, spot trends, and react quickly if readings go outside expected ranges (unless you have the relays set automatically). Whether you're monitoring a single sensor or a full set of eight, N-Button makes live data monitoring intuitive and actionable.

---

Push Notification

N-Button software also includes a powerful point-and-click messaging system that sends alerts to the recipients you choose. Because N-Button runs on your PC, it can automatically deliver text messages and/or emails directly from your computer.

Send SMS and email alerts when voltage levels are reached. Customize the subject and message to identify exactly what triggered the alert. You can even set repeat notifications at a defined interval until the input level returns to normal.

A/D Inputs

AD8 Analog Input Usage Notice

Analog inputs should never have voltage applied when the controller is powered down. If your application requires voltage to remain on an input, add a 220-ohm current-limiting resistor to each channel to protect the controller from damage.
Keep all analog inputs within the 0 - 5VDC range - exceeding this limit can permanently damage the on-board CPU. Most inputs include a 10K pull-up or pull-down resistor to keep the line stable when unused, but note that this resistor may introduce a slight bias in readings for certain sensors.
