Configuring Relays with LYNK ACCESS

NOTE
For examples of how to use the relays, refer to the Appendix, Example Relay Configurations.

Configuration of the LYNK II relays should only be done by qualified personnel.

Connect the LYNK II Gateway to your computer, start the LYNK ACCESS software, and select the LYNK tab.

NOTE
If you encounter difficulties getting the LYNK ACCESS software to recognize the LYNK II, try reversing steps 1 and 2 (start LYNK ACCESS then connect the USB cable) and wait up to a minute.

Select the blue gear icon in the upper right area of the Relay Settings tile.

Relay Settings

In the Relay Settings, select the Relay, the Relay Profile, and the relay’s Activated and Deactivated parameters.

From the Relay list, select the relay to configure.

Among the three relays on the LYNK II, relays 2 and 3 operate as normally open (NO) relays. Relay 1 is configured with both normally open (NO) and normally closed (NC) relays.

Relay 1
Pin 10 is Normally Open. When Relay 1 is activated, pin 10 is closed and allows voltage to pass through. Pin 12 is the common leg of the relay.
Pin 11 is Normally Closed. When Relay 1 is activated, pin 11 is opened and does not allow voltage to pass. Pin 11 allows voltage to pass through when Relay 1 is deactivated. Pin 12 is the common leg of the relay.
Relay 2
Pin 6 is Normally Open. When Relay 2 is activated, the relay is closed and allows voltage to pass through. Pin 8 is the common leg of the relay.
Relay 3
Pin 4 is Normally Open. When Relay 3 is activated, the relay is closed and allows voltage to pass through. Pin 2 is the common leg of the relay.

Select one of the pre-configured profiles from the Relay Profile list and follow on-screen prompts to complete the Activated and Deactivated parameters.

Click SAVE.

The LYNK II relays can be forced ON or OFF from within LYNK ACCESS to confirm operations. Before operation, use LYNK ACCESS to reset the relay state.

NOTICE

UNEXPECTED EQUIPMENT OPERATION AND DAMAGE

Unexpected equipment activity may occur while programming the relays.

Disconnect all devices by removing the Phoenix connector from LYNK II.
Replace the Phoenix connector when programming is complete.

Failure to follow these instructions may result in equipment damage.

NOTE
By default, the relays are disabled. Saving the relay settings will automatically restart LYNK II. A relay that has been forced ON or OFF will remain in the selected state even after a power reset. Use LYNK ACCESS to clear a relay. If the time changes as a result of daylight saving time, review and reset all time-based triggers on the changeover date.
