2. Característiques clau
- TCP/IP RJ45 Ethernet Port: Configurable IP address for network integration.
- Integrat Web Servidor: Enables remote access and control of relays via a web navegador.
- 8 Independent Relay Channels: Each channel supports 250V/AC 10A switching.
- 8 External Control Outputs: Active low level outputs for controlling switches or sensors.
- Accés remot: Supports re-engineering protocol for router connection, allowing global access control via Android, tablet, or other systems.
3. Configuració
3.1 Connexions físiques
- Font d'alimentació: Connect a 9V DC power supply to the 12V input terminal. Ensure correct polarity.
- Connexió Ethernet: Connect a standard RJ45 Ethernet cable from your network router or switch to the RJ45 port on the module.
- Sortides de relé: Connect the devices you wish to control to the 8 relay output screw terminals. Each relay can switch up to 250V/AC at 10A. Refer to the diagram below for terminal identification.
- External Control Inputs: If using external switches or sensors, connect them to the 8 external control input terminals. These inputs are active low.

3.2 Configuració inicial de la xarxa
Upon initial power-up, the module will attempt to obtain an IP address via DHCP. If DHCP is not available or if a static IP is preferred, the IP address can be configured through the module's web interface or a dedicated configuration tool (if provided by the manufacturer). Consult the manufacturer's documentation for default IP addresses or configuration utility details.
4. Instruccions de funcionament
4.1 Accés a Web Interfície
- Ensure the module is powered on and connected to your network.
- Obre a web navegador en un ordinador connectat a la mateixa xarxa.
- Enter the module's IP address into the browser's address bar (e.g., http://192.168.1.100).
- El web interface will load, displaying the status of the 8 relays and providing controls to switch them on or off.
4.2 Controlling Relays
Dins del web interface, each relay channel will have a corresponding control element (e.g., a button or toggle switch). Click or tap these elements to change the state of the respective relay (ON/OFF). The module will respond by physically switching the connected device.
4.3 Using External Control Inputs
The 8 external control inputs can be used to trigger actions or monitor states from external devices like switches or sensors. When an input receives an active low signal, the module can be configured to perform a specific action, such as changing a relay state or sending a notification. Refer to the module's web interface or advanced documentation for configuring these input actions.
4.4 Remote Access via Router
For global access, connect the module to a router and configure port forwarding or use the provided re-engineering protocol. This allows control of the module from anywhere with internet access using a compatible application on Android, tablet, or other systems. Consult your router's manual and the module's advanced documentation for specific instructions on remote access configuration.
5. Manteniment
5.1 Neteja
To clean the module, disconnect it from all power sources and networks. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the exterior. Do not use liquid cleaners, solvents, or abrasive materials, as these can damage the device.
5.2 Consideracions ambientals
Ensure the module is operated within its specified temperature and humidity ranges. Avoid exposing the device to direct sunlight, excessive moisture, dust, or corrosive environments. Proper ventilation is recommended to prevent overheating.
6. Solució De Problemes
| Problema | Causa possible | Solució |
|---|---|---|
| Module does not power on. | No power supply connected or faulty power supply. | Verify power supply connection and ensure it provides 9V DC. Test with a known working power supply. |
| No es pot accedir web interfície. | Incorrect IP address, network cable disconnected, or network configuration issue. | Check network cable connection. Verify the module's IP address. Ensure your computer is on the same network segment. Try resetting the module. |
| Relays do not switch. | Incorrect wiring, overload, or module malfunction. | Check relay wiring for correct connections. Ensure the load does not exceed 250V/AC 10A. If the issue persists, contact support. |
| External inputs not responding. | Incorrect wiring, input not active low, or configuration issue. | Verify wiring of external devices. Ensure the input signal is active low. Check the module's configuration for input actions. |
