A cost effective Web Relay control

That is the one I originally planned on buying, but for control software it seems that you either have to buy a 3rd party program, or use command line stuff. I wanted something that I could control with a GUI.

Hi Charlie

It does have a Web GUI.  And, then you are not dependant on Windows to control it.

Michael.....That would work fine, but When I was on their website, I didn't see where to get that application. There were links to other sites but they had license fees of $45 for apps. Is this screen native to the unit (ie: in it's firmware?)

Hi

There is no application.  You plug the relay into your network and then enter the network address, like http://192.168.0.68.   It is all built in.  You do this from a web browser.

They outline it on their page:  https://info.kmtronic.com/kmtronic-lan-ethernet-ip-8-channels-web-relay-board.html

Thanks, Michael.......I just ordered one. Looks like it'll take some time to get here from Bulgaria.

In answer to your question about tying the relays together, you can do this.  You simply run jumpers from the "hot" line of the relay coils which you wish to operate simultaneously.  I have done this in order to switch both legs of the 240v power to my linear.  The control software may not reflect that all the relays which you have tied together have been opened (or closed).  If it is an entire relay bank, that is no problem.  But if you have some relays on the bank performing other duties that are not tied together with others, you just have to remember which is which.  I haven't found that to be an issue.
The Sainsmart relay cards have worked well for me.

Lately I have been going thru my shack and cleaning up noise generators.

I found that the Son/Off 4 position switch was generating a lot of noise on 10m and 6m. I tried using ferrite to **** the noise on the line and power feeding it. Even fed it from a battery. I was unable to get rid of the noise until I removed the 12volt supply and powered it directly from the 120vac mains. Now there is no noise. Have others found this also or do I just have a noisy module.

Hi guys, I just became a new owner of a 6600 around 3h ago, and I want to turn on/off remotely my radio as I do with the other ones, the difference is, I use a software to do that. I read about REM at back of the radio using RCA connector with a remote switch, well, I'm a Shelly user here, I have my entire house smart with shelly and I was wondering if I can use a shelly1 remote switch to do that as well. I have a smart plug for the power supply, so I can turn on/off with no issues but what about the radio? Anyone using Shelly as well? How the RCA is connected to Shelly 1? Any diagram available?
Any help/idea will be very welcome.
