继电器Relay：ZZR08

继电器常识：

继电器有三个接线柱：常开(NO)，常闭(NC)，接地(C)

如果连接的时间长，偶尔需要断电， 那么接NC 和 C， 这样继电器set on 时为断电。除此之外，继电器还可以控制按键，以及长按。

继电器接通时，该继电器的灯会亮。ZZR08有8个继电器，以一个字节表示其整体状态，以每位的位高（bit high）代表对应继电器的状态。例如：第一个继电器set on 时为00000001，set off 时该位为0；第二个set on 时为00000010(2), set off 时该位为0。以此类推.

怎样使用继电器：

1. Command “ls /dev/tty*”, you can find like this
/dev/ttyRelayCard

在接入继电器之前运行“ls /dev/tty*”， 接入之后再运行一次，多出来的就是继电器的标识。

2. Check the file /etc/udev/rules.d/ACS.rules. In this file, there have a code like

this:

SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="10c4", ATTRS{idProduct}=="ea60",
SYMLINK+="ttyRelayCard", MODE="", OWNER="buildbot"

If there don’t have this code, please add it by manual. And then re-plugin the

relay card’s USB cable.

    查看是否存在/etc/udev/rules.d/ACS.rules，如果不存在，则建立文件：touch ACS.rules，文件内容如上。

3. 查看权限：ls -l /dev/ttyRelayCard， 结果crw-rw---- 1 root dialout.

    可以更改继电器权限：chmod a+rw /dev/ttyRelayCard. 这样坏处是，每次插拔继电器都要更改。

继电器的user是root, group是dialout。可以使当前用户从属于dialout用户组。查看user的用户组：groups user。更改user的附属用户组list: sudo usermod -G dialout,adm,...
