Indigo 8 Channel Network Relay Board Plugin

This plugin allows you to control the relays on the 8 channel network relay boards being sold on eBay. This plugin also exposes the 8 on-board input sensors. You may find this plugin on the Indigo Plugin Store.

This repo includes two technical documents:

Both documents came from the retailer. Here's a link to the auction (until it goes away):

Will this work for you?

I have no idea. It works for me. Does your device listen on port 1234? If yes, it'll probably work. Drop into a Terminal window on your Mac and run telnet 192.168.1.166 1234. Replace 192.168.1.166 with your device's IP. If you see Trying 192.168.1.166... and nothing else, it's not working. If it says connected, type DUMP and hit enter. If you see data, you should be good to go!

Usage

  1. Clone this repo on your Indigo server.
  2. Double-click the included plugin file.
  3. Install and Enable the Plugin.
  4. Add a New Device, Select 8 Channel Network Relay
  5. Enter the IP address for your relay board.
  6. Add 1 or more relays and click Save.
  7. Click Edit Device Settings and select a Relay Channel for the device.
  8. Click On and Off - your board should click.

There are a few more features, but that should get you going. Please report any issues on GitHub.
