4. ఆపరేటింగ్ సూచనలు

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 సీరియల్ పోర్ట్ సెట్టింగ్‌లు

The default UART settings for communication are:

• బాడ్ రేటు: 9600
• బిట్స్ ఆపు: 1
• సమానత్వం: ఏదీ లేదు
• డేటా బిట్స్: 8

4.2 AT కమాండ్ జాబితా

#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")

గమనిక: భర్తీ చేయండి 'COM101' with the actual serial port name assigned to your SH-UR01A device (e.g., COM3, /dev/ttyUSB0).

5. నిర్వహణ

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

• పొడిగా ఉంచండి: పరికరాన్ని తేమ లేదా ద్రవాలకు బహిర్గతం చేయకుండా ఉండండి.
• సున్నితంగా శుభ్రం చేయండి: If cleaning is necessary, use a dry, soft cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

• సరైన నిల్వ: ఉపయోగంలో లేనప్పుడు, పరికరాన్ని ప్రత్యక్ష సూర్యకాంతి నుండి దూరంగా చల్లని, పొడి ప్రదేశంలో నిల్వ చేయండి.

6. ట్రబుల్షూటింగ్

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

• పరికరం గుర్తించబడలేదు:
  - USB కేబుల్ సురక్షితంగా కనెక్ట్ చేయబడిందని నిర్ధారించుకోండి.
  - 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.
