4. Kullanım Talimatları

The SH-UR01A is controlled by sending specific AT commands to its virtual serial port. You can use any serial terminal program (e.g., PuTTY, Realterm, Tera Term) or custom software to send these commands.

4.1 Seri Bağlantı Noktası Ayarları

The default UART settings for communication are:

• Baud Hızı: 9600
• Durdurma Bitleri: 1
• parite: Hiçbiri
• Veri Bitleri: 8

4.2 AT Komut Listesi

Use the following commands to control the relay:

#This demo code is issued by DSD Tech Team exclusively for the SH-UR01A USB Relay
import serial
import time
import serial.tools.list_ports

ports_list = list(serial.tools.list_ports.comports())

if len(ports_list)<=0:
    print("no serial port")
else:
    print("serial port as follow:")
    for comport in ports_list:
        print(list(comport)[0],list(comport)[1])

ser=serial.Serial('COM101',9600,timeout=0.5) # please modify your uart port name such as COM10

if ser.is_open:
    print("open sucess")
    print(ser.name)
else:
    print("open failed")

mylen = ser.write('AT+CH1=0') # Relay Off
time.sleep( 3 )

mylen = ser.write('AT+CH1=1') # Relay ON

ser.close()
print("serial close")

Not: Yer değiştirmek 'COM101' with the actual serial port name assigned to your SH-UR01A device (e.g., COM3, /dev/ttyUSB0).

5. Bakım

The DSD TECH SH-UR01A USB Relay Controller is designed for durability and requires minimal maintenance. To ensure optimal performance and longevity:

• Kuru Tutun: Cihazı neme veya sıvılara maruz bırakmaktan kaçının.
• Nazikçe Temizleyin: If cleaning is necessary, use a dry, soft cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• Dikkatli Kullanın: Cihazı düşürmekten veya güçlü darbelere maruz bırakmaktan kaçının.
• Uygun Depolama: Kullanılmadığında, cihazı doğrudan güneş ışığından uzak, serin ve kuru bir yerde saklayın.

6. Sorun Giderme

If you encounter issues with your SH-UR01A USB Relay Controller, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Cihaz tanınmadı:
  - Ensure the USB cable is securely connected.
  - Verify that the Silicon Labs CP2102N driver is correctly installed. Check Device Manager (Windows) or system information (macOS/Linux) for any driver errors or unrecognized devices.
  - Try connecting to a different USB port or another computer to rule out port or system-specific issues.
• Relay Not Responding to Commands:
  - Confirm that the correct virtual serial port (e.g., COM port number) is selected in your terminal program or software.
  - Check that the serial port settings (Baud Rate: 9600, Stop Bits: 1, Parity: None, Data Bits: 8) match the device's default settings.
  - Ensure the AT commands are sent correctly, including the exact syntax (e.g., AT+CH1=1). Some terminal programs may require specific settings for sending commands (e.g., appending carriage return/line feed).
  - Test communication with the simple AT command; if it responds with "OK", the communication link is established.
• Intermittent Connection or Errors:
  - USB cable quality can affect communication. Try a different USB cable.
  - Ensure there are no other applications or processes using the same serial port simultaneously.
  - Electrical noise or interference can affect serial communication. Keep the device away from strong electromagnetic fields.
• Relay Clicking but Not Switching External Device:
  - Verify the wiring of your external device to the relay terminals (NO, COM, NC).
  - Ensure the external device's voltage and current requirements do not exceed the OMRON G5V-1 relay's rated load (0.5A at 125 VAC; 1A at 24 VDC). Overloading can damage the relay.
