### 4. Functionality

Operating Principle:
The ND‑6067 receives ASCII commands from a host computer or controller via the RS‑485 bus. Each command specifies the module address and desired output state. The internal microprocessor decodes the command and energizes or de‑energizes the corresponding relay coil. The relay contacts then switch external AC or DC circuits.

Use Cases and Applications:
- Industrial automation and process control (motor starters, pumps, valves)
- Building automation (lighting, HVAC, security systems)
- Laboratory and test equipment control
- Remote power distribution and load management
- Integration with PLCs, SCADA, or PC‑based control systems

Compatibility:
Fully compatible with other NuDAM‑6000 modules (analog input/output, digital I/O, counter/frequency). Communicates over the same RS‑485 multi‑drop network using identical command syntax.

Wiring Guidelines:
1. Power off all devices before wiring.
2. Connect +VS and GND to a regulated DC supply.
3. Connect RS‑485 DATA+ and DATA– lines in parallel with other NuDAM modules.
4. Terminate both ends of the RS‑485 bus with 120 Ω resistors.
5. Use shielded cable and connect shield to protective earth at one point.
6. Connect external loads to relay contacts according to Form A configuration.
7. Observe contact ratings and avoid inductive surges without suppression.

Configuration Procedure:
- Each module has a unique address (00–FF hex).
- Factory default: Address 01, 9600 bps, checksum disabled.
- To change settings, short the DEFAULT* pin to GND and power on; use the NuDAM Administration Utility or ASCII command `%` to assign new address and baud rate.
- Remove the short after configuration.
