The RS-232 Interface

Connects to Third Party Devices

RS-232 remains one of the most universal and flexible control interfaces available. If your device can send serial commands, it can control these relays.

With DB-9 and direct-wire connectivity, RS-232 Relay Controllers can interface with:

• Industrial controllers
• Automation systems
• Legacy equipment
• Embedded systems
• Custom hardware
• Any device capable of sending serial (hex/decimal) commands

This makes RS-232 an ideal solution for device-to-device control, not just computer control. If your system has a serial output, this board can receive commands and trigger relays reliably and predictably.

ZRS Serial Interface Module

This board is equipped with the ZRS RS-232 module, which adds a true hardware serial interface to the controller platform.

The ZRS module is available in three connection formats to match your wiring and installation needs:

• DB-9 connector
• Screw terminal (direct wire)
• Combined DB-9 + screw terminal

The ZRS module is powered from the serial port, while the relay board itself requires 12VDC power, available via hard-wire connection or optional power supply at checkout.

Available RS-232 Connection Options

ZRS-A - Wire It Up     
Direct-wire screw terminal serial connection

ZRS-B - Plug It In     
Onboard DB-9 serial connector

ZRS-AB - Both     
DB-9 connector + direct-wire terminals

---

Mounts as a COM Port

When connected to a computer, the RS-232 controller appears as a standard COM port.
Once powered, the board waits for incoming serial commands. Commands are sent as simple byte sequences, and the controller responds with a confirmation signal after execution.

This allows easy integration into:

• Custom software
• Automation scripts
• Industrial control applications
• Test systems
• Data collection platforms
• Legacy software environments
• Any system capable of serial communication can control the relays.

The ProXR DPDT Relay Board

Easy Software Development

Most of our customers write their own program for controlling these devices. Since you can use almost any programming language, you can use one that is most familiar to you so you don't have to learn a new language.  These boards support the Serial Port Profile, meaning they will mount to the computer as a virtual com port. This makes it very easy to send commands to the device.

Plug-In for Visual Studio

The NCD Component Library is a plug-in for the Visual Studio 2005/2008 that greatly simplifies the communications to the NCD product line. The samples can be run in Visual Studio and full customization to your needs.  Over 40 samples included with this free download!  Component Library.

Base Station Software

Base Station Software was designed to help you learn the ProXR command set.  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 the complete array of communication modules.  Base Station software supports every feature of this device - no other controller manufacturer even comes close to offering this type of software. 

Essential Power Requirements

Applying Good clean power to the board is essential for the operation of the board.  Not only for the switching of the relays but the firmware that processes the commands.  Without good steady clean power from a regulated power supply the board simply will not function correctly.  All boards on the site require 12 VDC power.  The PWR12 US power supply is a 120VAC to 12VDC 1.25A 60Hz regulated power supply and it plugs into the barrel connector on the board.  The output connector is a 2.1mm I.D. x 5.5mm O.D. x 9.5mm Female R/A barrel connector.  We also carry an international power supply with interchangeable adapters for international customers.

Read Analog Sensors

This ProXR controller offers a 8-Channel 8/10-Bit Analog to Digital Converter in addition to relay control.  Read and control from 8 sensors per board from 0 to 5 volts!

ProXR Enhanced Firmware Installed

This board has ProXR Firmware installed that responds to the full ProXR Command Set.  The ProXR Firmware is the industry leading firmware for controlling relays with more commands and functionality than any other board on the market.  The list of commands and parameters this board is capable of is extensive.  ProXR Enhanced is the newly released enhance version of the ProXR Firmware with more commands, more functionality and better control than ever before!  For a detailed list of all the commands with descriptions see our ProXR Enhanced Command Set.

DPDT Relays Installed

This board has DPDT relays installed.  A single DPDT relay is made up of 2 SPDT switches.  Each relay acts as two switches that are activated at the same time.  This allows two independent signals to be switched at one time.  In effect, there are two independent switches on a single DPDT relay - they will always switch together.  There are two connectors with Normally Open, Normally Closed and Common for each relay allowing two separate connections.  The diagram below shows the how the arms of the common swing from the Normally Closed to the Normally Open positions when energized.  Wiring to either the NO or NC can produce your desired results.

2-Million Cycles

ProXR series controllers are designed for long life, you should expect to get years of service from your controller and literally 2-million cycles from the relays on board.  With a 5-year warranty and a money back guarantee you have nothing to loose!  Place your order now, while everything is in front of you.

This Board is RoHS Compliant

This board is led free and RoHS Compliant.  If your requirements are for RoHS compliant parts this board is manufactured with RoHS compliant led free parts and solder.

Add Relays as Your Needs Grow

The ProXR series controllers are expandable up to 256 total relays.  The controller is fitted with an XR Expansion Port where you can add expansion boards to this relay.  Expansion boards can be added until you reach 256 total relays.  The Expansion Boards get their logic from the main board and will require 12 VDC power. Expansion boards do not need to be the same relay amperage as the main board or other expansion boards.

16 User-Programmable Timers

The ProXR Series controllers have 16 user-programmable timers. Each independent timer can be assigned to any relay, and can be programmed to hold the relay in the On state, or to pulse the relay at the end of the timer.  The ProXR timing features are ideally suited for Watchdog, Keep Alive, and Server Reboot applications, as well as sprinkler systems, gate openers, and lighting applications.  Relay Timing Features support two modes of operation: Duration and Pulse. Duration timing is ideally suited where a device should be activated for a period of time. Pulse timing mode is designed specifically for server reboot applications, whereby, if the timer is not reset periodically by your software, the timer will run out and reboot your computer.

5-Year Warranty/Money Back Guarantee

ProXR series controllers are guaranteed against manufacturing and functionality defects for a full 5 years!  Not to mention a 30-day money back guarantee!  If for any reason you are not happy with a relay purchased from Relay Pros, simply return it within 30 days and we will give you your money back!  Controllers that are damaged by our customers will not of course be warranted under any circumstances. 

Induction Suppression

Perhaps the most overlooked aspect of relay control is proper handling of inductive loads. Inductive loads can best be defined as anything with a magnetic coil, such as a motor, solenoid, or a transformer.  Controlling a inductive load using this relay board requires an induction suppression capacitor for each relay being used.  The purpose of this capacitor is to absorb the high voltages generated by inductive loads, blocking them from the contacts of the relay.  Without this capacitor, the lifespan of the relay will be greatly reduced.  Induction can be so severe that it interferes with the logic of the board, causing relay banks to shut down unexpectedly.  For more information view our Induction Suppression Video.

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

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

"This isn't just a relay board - it's a control system."

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.

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.
AD8 Relay Activator Quick Start Guide.

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

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.

USB and Network Compatible

N-Button Pro supports Serial Port/ USB and Network connection between the PC and the relay board. Add any type of included N-Button Lite widgets with N-Button Pro Manager. It's also very easy to modify the widget's properties to get the button and configuration you are looking for. N-Button Lite will control most relays on this site. N-Button Lite is not compatible with Reactor/Key Fob or Taralist relay since these controllers have their own configuration software included with the board or MirC/MirX controllers since these don't require any software or programming at all.

Create Relay Buttons

Relay Button Widgets turn on/off relays directly.  It has never been easier to control relays, no programming skills required!  Create a button that turns a relay on and another one to turn the relay off or create a button that toggles (one click turn relay on another turns it off).  It's up to you and easy to configure with a point-and-click interface!

Create Custom Buttons

When you create custom buttons in N-Button Pro you can use any of the commands that are in a ProXR Command Set (provided you purchase a ProXR relay) the industry leading command set and it's quite extensive!  These buttons will be on your desktop of your computer and when you click on a button it will send the command to the board provided the board is connected to the computer.  You can also change the shape, color and text of each button so you will know exactly what each button controls.  The color can even change with the status of the relay (on or off)!

Create Relay Status Widgets

Relay Status widgets shows the status of the relay automatically. Just a glance at your desktop will show the status of the relay!

Create Desktop Meters

Desktop Meters can be created for real time level readings of any variable input sensor.  "It's like having a meter right on your desk for constant monitoring".  Meters can be created for temperature sensors, moisture sensors, light meters and others.  Read the sensor and create relay buttons that will allow at-a-glance determination of the relay status.  Best of all the increments on the meter can be fully customized to fit your needs.  Choose an Analog to Digital controller (look for AD in the part number) purchase a copy of N-Button Pro or N-Button Lite and you can read the A/D levels right on your desktop!   If you have an application where you need to track sensor levels you will have a live real time meter right on your desktop!

Backgrounds

Add some style to your desktop with N-Button Pro and N-Button Pro you can create backgrounds and holders for your buttons like the virtual Key Fob.  Create your own button functions or use one of our pre-installed "V" Fobs ready for download.

Control More Than Just Relay Boards

Customized Button widgets can be set to send specified data to any other connected devices besides relay boards. It can be set to open a file, a folder or a program, run any application or send http request. It also supports send data list.  A group of data can be sent to serial port or IP address just by clicking the created button.

The XR Expansion Port

Add Relays as Your Needs Grow

ProXR Controllers were built with relay expansion in mind.  The XR Expansion Port is used to add banks of external relays to a ProXR or Taralist board equipped with a XR Expansion port.  The ProXR and Taralist boards are fitted with an XR Expansion Port where you can add expansion boards.  Expansion boards can be added until you reach 256 total relays.  As you continue to chain expansion boards onto an XR expansion port, the total number of available relay banks will increase.  Add expansion boards as needed in the future, whenever you require more relays simply order another expansion board.

Linking XR Expansion Boards Together

XR Expansion Boards consist of a XR Input and XR Output Connector.  Simply connect the XR Output of your ProXR Board to the XR Input located on the relay expansion board.  Chaining more relays is easy.  Simply connect the XR Output of your ProXR expansion board to the XR Input of your next expansion board.  Mix and Match different relay types as your application requires.  A 6″ expansion cable is included with the expansion board.  It's important to keep the cabling as short as possible.  Not all users will be able to expand to 256 total relays, as it all depends on the installation, the amount of electrical interference, and the overall cable length.  For best compatibility, the total length of the ProXR controller and all of the expansions and cabling should not exceed 1 or 2 meters.

Will Not Operate Independently

This Expansion Board gets it's commands from the main ProXR or Taralist board and will not operate independently.  This board MUST be plugged into a ProXR or Taralist board to operate and will not function on it's own.

Essential Power Requirements

This and all expansion boards require 12 VDC to operate.  We offer a wall-wart type power supply at checkout if you need to plug this into a 110 wall outlet.  Applying Good clean power to the board is essential for the operation of the board.  Without good steady clean power from a regulated power supply the board simply will not function correctly.  The PWR12 US power supply is a 120VAC to 12VDC 1.25A 60Hz regulated power supply and it plugs into the barrel connector on the board.  The output connector is a 2.1mm I.D. x 5.5mm O.D. x 9.5mm Female R/A barrel connector.  We also carry an international power supply with interchangeable adapters for international customers. Learn More

Maximum Relay Rating Notes

ProXR is capable of expanding to an absolute maximum of 256 Relays.  In some cases, it may not be possible to control all 256 relays, particularly in applications where high noise levels may be involved.  Experimentation may be required, as it is not possible for us to guarantee all users will be able to utilize all 256 relays in every application.  Noise tends to accumulate when several expansions are connected together.  For best results, the XR expansion cables must be as short as possible.

DPDT Relays Installed

This board has DPDT relays installed.  A single DPDT relay is made up of 2 SPDT switches.  Each relay acts as two switches that are activated at the same time.  This allows two independent signals to be switched at one time.  In effect, there are two independent switches on a single DPDT relay - they will always switch together.

There are two connectors with Normally Open, Normally Closed and Common for each relay allowing two separate connections.  The picture above shows the 4-channel connectors.  The diagram to the right shows the how the arms of the common connector swing from the Normally Closed to the Normally Open positions when energized.  Wiring to either the NO or NC can produce your desired results.

Mix & Match

Expansion boards do not need to be the same relay amperage as the main board or other expansion boards.  Mix & match expansion board to get the exact amperage for your switching needs.

Relay Wiring Samples

This page provides simple examples showing how to wire a single relay - or multiple relays - for common switching applications. We use a light as the example load, but you can substitute a gate controller, security panel input, dry contact device, motor trigger, or most other switched loads. These wiring samples demonstrate different ways to connect relays to achieve the switching behavior you need.

Relay Types

SPDT Relay

SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw) relays include three terminals: 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 to NO.

Your load can be wired to either the NO or NC terminal depending on whether you want the device to turn on when the relay activates or when it releases. Examples below demonstrate both wiring methods. The SPDT relays offered on this site are 5-Amp, 10-Amp and 20-Amp models.

---

SPST Relay

SPST (Single Pole Single Throw) relays provide two terminals: Common (COM) and Normally Open (NO).

When the relay coil is energized, COM connects to NO to power the load. The only SPST relays offered on this site are our 30-Amp models. All SPST examples shown on this page apply to these relays as long as the example does not require a Normally Closed terminal.

---

DPDT Relay

A DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw) relay contains two SPDT switches that operate together.

• Each side includes its own COM, NO, and NC terminals.
• Both internal switches change state at the same time.

This allows you to control two independent circuits with one relay. Wiring for each side of a DPDT relay follows the same rules as an SPDT relay, so the examples on this page apply directly. We offer the DPDT relays in 1-Amp, 3-Amp and 5-Amp models on ProXR boards starting at 8 relays.

Relay Grouping in the ProXR Command Set lets you combine individual relays to function like a DPDT relay using separate channels. This is ideal when you need to control multiple relays simultaneously or exceed the 5-Amp switching limit of our standard DPDT relays.

Relay Logic Examples

Example 1 - Simple Off/On Control

This example shows the most basic way to use a relay to switch a device such as a light. When the relay energizes, its NO (Normally Open) contact closes to COM (Common), completing the circuit and turning the light on.

Only a single power wire is switched in this setup, making it the simplest method for controlling a light - or any device - using a relay.

Use this example for switching a light or any device you want to power only when the relay is on.

---

Example 2 - Simple On/Off (Using NC Contact)

This wiring method keeps the device on by default. The relay switches a single power wire through the COM (Common) and NC (Normally Closed) terminals.
When the relay is not energized, the NC contact is closed to COM and the light remains on.
When the relay energizes, the NC contact opens, interrupting power and turning the light off.

This approach is ideal for devices that stay on most of the time, reducing relay wear since it doesn't need to remain energized to keep the device powered. It's also a useful method for power-cycling equipment - energizing the relay momentarily will turn the device off.

---

Example 3 - AND Logic Using Two Relays

This example shows how two relays can work together so a light turns on only when both relays are energized. This creates an AND Logic condition:
Relay 1 AND Relay 2 must be on for the light to receive power.

A single power wire is switched, but it must pass through both relay contacts before reaching the light. This setup is ideal when two conditions must be met at the same time - such as requiring input from multiple sensors or system parameters.

MirC/MirX Users: This wiring requires two contact closure inputs on the sender board before the receiver's relay activates. Use this approach when two independent outputs must close before turning on the light.

For example, a light could turn on only when:
• A light sensor detects it's dark AND
• A motion sensor detects activity in the room

---

Example 4 - AND Logic Using Three Relays

This example expands on the previous AND Logic concept. Here, the light will turn on only when all three relays are energized:

Relay 1 AND Relay 2 AND Relay 3 must be on for power to reach the light.

A single power wire is routed through all three relay contacts. Wiring from the NO (Normally Open) of Relay 1 to the COM (Common) of Relay 2, then from the NO of Relay 2 to the COM of Relay 3, creates a series path that requires every relay to close before the light can activate.

This method can be scaled easily - just continue wiring NO of each relay to the COM of the next relay. Add as many relays as needed to meet your logic or safety requirements.

---

Example 5 - AND/OR Logic with Override

This example demonstrates a combined AND/OR logic setup. The light will turn on when:

• Relay 1 AND Relay 2 are both energized
  OR
Relay 3 is energized (override)

This wiring is useful when you need a normal logic condition plus a manual or automatic override option.

For example:
• Relay 1 = night/day sensor
• Relay 2 = motion sensor
• Relay 3 = manual override (local switch)

If it's dark and the motion sensor activates, Relays 1 and 2 energize to turn on the light. But if you want to control the light manually - regardless of sensor conditions - Relay 3 can override the logic and activate the light on its own.

A/D Board Users: The Relay Activator function on any A/D board or ProXR Lite board lets you connect a button or switch to any A/D input. This input can then control the override relay, giving you a convenient local button to manually override the first two relays.

MirC/MirX Users: Add a manual button or switch to trigger the third relay when you need direct control instead of sensor-driven control.

Reactor Users: A local button or switch can be wired to the third relay input to provide a manual override for sensor-based logic.

---

Example 6 - OR Logic (Either Relay Activates)

This example demonstrates OR Logic - the light will turn on when either relay is energized. Only one power wire is switched, but it can pass through Relay 1 or Relay 2 to reach the light.

• If Relay 1 activates, the light turns on
• If Relay 2 activates, the light turns on
• If both activate, the light remains on

This setup is ideal when two independent sources should be able to control the same device. Common uses include:

• A timer controlling one relay, with a manual or secondary control for the other.
• Two sensors where either condition (motion detected or low light, for example) should activate the light.

A/D Board Users: The Relay Activator function on any A/D board or ProXR Lite board lets you connect a button or switch to any A/D input. This input can then be used as a manual control of the relay.

MirC/MirX Users: Wire two contact closure inputs into the sender board - either input can trigger the receiver relay to control the light.

---

Example 7 - 3-Way Switch (Relay-Based 3-Way Control)

This example shows how to create a 3-way light switch setup using relays. A traditional 3-way circuit allows two switches to control the same light from different locations. In this wiring sample, each physical switch is replaced by a relay - but the operation is the same.

Only one power wire is switched, and the relays toggle the light depending on their current state.

• Activating either relay will toggle the light
• Activating both relays at the same time has the same effect as flipping both switches at once

This wiring method is especially useful because you can replace one of the relays with a physical light switch, giving you both computer control and manual control of the same light. When used correctly, this becomes one of the most flexible and powerful diagrams on the page.

---

Example 8 - DC Motor Direction Control

This example demonstrates how to control the direction of a DC motor using two relays. By changing how the motor's leads connect to power, you can run the motor forward, reverse, or place it in a brake state. Braking is achieved by tying both motor terminals to the same power connection, which stops rotation through Faraday's Law.

Relay Operation Summary

• Relay 1 Off / Relay 2 Off → Motor Brake to +
• Relay 1 On / Relay 2 Off → Motor Forward
• Relay 1 Off / Relay 2 On → Motor Reverse
• Relay 1 On / Relay 2 On → Motor Brake to -

The capacitors shown are optional for small motors, but may be required in some situations:

• The induction suppression capacitor prevents the relay from shutting off due to motor back-EMF
• The 0.1µF filter capacitor reduces electrical noise, especially useful when powering sensitive electronics such as radios or amplifiers.

Capacitor Placement
• Place the induction suppression capacitor near the relays
• Place the filter capacitor near the motor
• Additional capacitors may be needed for certain motors

Important Note on Inductive Loads
Motors draw significantly more current at startup than during continuous operation - often 2-3 times their rated running current. For example, a motor rated at 5A (125VAC) may require 10-15A to begin turning. Always select a relay that exceeds the motor's initial inrush current, not just its running current. In this case, a 20-30A relay provides optimal performance and longevity.

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.

---

Time Control Software

We offer two timer software options to support different types of automation needs: Relay Timer and Quick Timer. Relay Timer is designed for time-of-day scheduling, allowing relays to turn on and off automatically based on the computer's clock - ideal for daily routines and long-term automation. Quick Timer focuses on duration-based control, running relay sequences for a defined length of time that you manually start, making it well suited for test cycles, timed processes, and repeatable sequences.

Choose the timer that best matches whether your application depends on when an action occurs or how long it runs.

---

Relay Timer

Time Schedule Control

Relay Timer is third-party software (sold separately) that works with all ProXR and ProXR Lite relay controllers and supports every available interface - USB, wired, wireless, and network. No matter how your board is connected, Relay Timer communicates seamlessly to deliver reliable, scheduled relay control.

---

Precision Scheduling Using Your Computer's Clock

Relay Timer uses the computer's system clock to maintain accurate, drift-free timing. This ensures relay actions stay perfectly synchronized with other applications running on the same machine, such as time clocks or automation software.

A high-resolution timing engine - similar to those used in multimedia applications - provides timing accuracy down to 5 - 10 milliseconds, making Relay Timer well suited for real-time and precision-based control tasks.

---

High-Speed, Multi-Relay Control

Relay Timer can update up to eight relays simultaneously using the ProXR and ProXR Lite communication protocol. When speed matters, all eight relays can be updated in approximately 30 milliseconds.

In multi-relay applications, Relay Timer calculates the state of all relays together, even though each relay operates independently. This ensures fast, coordinated, and predictable behavior across complex schedules.

---

Take Manual Control

At any time, you can manually take control of a relay to interrupt the active schedule. Resume automatic operation instantly or set a specific time for the software to return to scheduled control - ideal for maintenance, testing, or temporary overrides such as school bells for assemblies.

---

---

Quick Timer

Compatible with ProXR & ProXR Lite Boards

Quick Timer is third-party software (sold separately) that works with all ProXR and ProXR Lite relay controllers and supports every available interface, including USB, wired, wireless, and network connections. The software automatically communicates with your board regardless of how it's connected, making setup quick and straightforward. Designed for responsive, duration-based control, Quick Timer delivers fast, reliable relay operation for timed sequences, test cycles, and repeatable automation tasks.

---

Duration-Based Relay Control (Not Time-of-Day Scheduling)

Quick Timer is designed for applications where how long a relay is energized matters more than what time of day it activates. Instead of using the computer's clock, Quick Timer runs sequences based on a defined time duration.

A sequence is manually started and can:

• Run once and stop automatically, or
• Loop continuously until manually stopped

This makes Quick Timer ideal for test cycles, timed processes, burn-in testing, and repeatable automation routines.

---

Flexible Time Sequences Within a Single Duration

Quick Timer allows you to define a total run duration first. Within that duration, each relay can follow its own independent on/off timing pattern.

Example: 30-Second Sequence

• Relay 1 turns on for 5 seconds, then off for 5 seconds
• Relay 2 turns off for 5 seconds, then on for 5 seconds
• Relay 3 turns on for the first 10 seconds, then off for 20 seconds
• Relay 4 remains off for 10 seconds, then turns on for 20 seconds

All relay actions are calculated and executed automatically within the defined time window.

---

Independent Control Per Relay

Each relay can be configured with its own timing behavior while remaining synchronized within the overall sequence duration. This allows complex, coordinated relay patterns without requiring scripting or programming.

---

Manual Override at Any Time

Manual control is always available. Interrupt the active sequence to toggle any relay as needed, then return to automatic operation immediately or at a user-defined time.

---

Built for Real-World Reliability

Quick Timer is designed to handle real-world operating conditions, including communication interruptions, power loss, and system instability. Rather than assuming perfect conditions, the software focuses on predictable behavior and clear user control when issues occur.

This free utility lets you override and accelerate your computer's clock, making it easy to test time-based automation without waiting in real time. Time Travel is included with Relay Timer, Quick Timer, and N-Button software and is also available as a free standalone download.

Instead of waiting hours or days to verify schedules, you can fast-forward time and confirm relay behavior in seconds - saving time, frustration, and repeated test cycles.

---

Make Time Run Faster

Time Travel can temporarily override your computer's system clock and adjust how fast time runs. Increase the clock speed to simulate long periods instantly - for example, at 3600x speed, a full day passes in just 24 seconds.

This makes it easy to validate schedules, sequences, and automation logic without waiting for real-world time to pass.

---

Ideal for Bench Testing & Development

Time Travel is especially useful for testing any software that relies on the computer's clock, including:

• Relay Timer
• Quick Timer
• N-Button
• Other scheduling or automation applications

It provides a fast, controlled way to confirm timing behavior before deploying systems in the field.

---

Presets & Automatic Time Recovery

Time Travel includes preset configurations that allow you to load saved time and speed settings quickly. Users can create, save, and export presets for future use, and the software remembers the last configuration when restarted.

To protect your system, Time Travel automatically restores the computer's clock to the correct local time when the program exits. The system time is only affected while the software is running.

---

Simple to Use

Using ime Travel is straightforward:

• Download and unzip the software
• Run TimeTravel.exe as Administrator

Key functions include:

• Current Running Speed - Adjusts how fast the computer clock runs
• Set Time - Changes the computer clock to a specific date and time
• Resume From Last Shutdown Time - Restarts from the last simulated computer time if the system shut down unexpectedly
• Sync with Real Time - Returns the clock to real-time operation (when speed is set to 1x)

When you exit the program, your computer clock is automatically restored to the current local time.
