Can console terminal (e.g., teraterm or putty) communicate with latching relay USB-RLY16L?

hi,

Between PC and the relay board the connection is com port (USB to serial), and I did see console terminal connected to the relay module. However, since I didn’t see message or prompt on console terminal, I doubt the control command can execute through console terminal like common CLI, I do hope it works in this way. Can anyone confirm and tell how-to?

thank you

Hi @mosfet and welcome to our forum.

I haven’t used this USB-RLY16L, but I’ve found this video that shows using Linux CLI to control the board:

If you own the board, you could try to connect using PUTTY and see what happens.

In any case, I’ve also found this Python script online which you can use as a CLI and send commands to the board:

I hope this helps.
