Relay Expansion module

Post by grafspee1217 »

If you add another relay box with the expansion module can I utilize the two dimming ports on the box?

Negative.
Both the expansion port and dimming port don't function when the relay box is used as expansion box.

Hi Roberto,
Just received my relay expansion box. I have a question, I plug the communication cable from the new relay box to the module. What do I use to connect the module to the main relay box? Is the cable supposed to be included? I haven't opened the Reef Angel head unit yet but are the jumpers already inside?
Thanks for the speedy shipping BTW

Did I screw up on the package?
There was supposed to be a SVGA cable just like the one you use to connect the head unit to the main relay box.
If there isn't one inside the box, send me a PM with your shipping address.
Roberto.

There is an SVGA cable which I would use to connect the new relay box to the module but how do you then connect the relay module??

The only two cables I received were the power cord and the SVGA cable. I assume the jumpers are in the head unit?

It was supposed to be a SVGA cable and a USB cable.
The SVGA connects between the Relay box and the module.
The USB cable connects the module to the expansion port of the main relay box.
Did you not receive the USB cable?

Yes, jumpers are supposed to be inside the head unit, already in place, except they are offset.

No there was no USB cable in the box, just the power cord for the relay box and the SVGA cable.

The USB cable would've been in the same plastic bag as the module itself.
Can you double check?
If you still can't find, PM me and I can send you one.

Roberto, I checked and yes the cable was in the bag with the module. I never noticed it, I was expecting a long cable for some reason. Thanks
