The
NCD Component Library is a Plug-In for Visual Studio 2005/2008 that greatly reduces software development time, effectively reducing most control operations to a single line of code. This free download includes many example applications covering a wide range of topics.
This video is a basic introduction to the world of Computer Controlled Switching and Relays in general. Also read our "Introduction to Computer Control" Article.
Watch to find out the advantages of wired communications and the differences between wired communications. Also read our Articles on Communication Protocols.
This video will show you what Induction is and how to use Capacitors to Suppress it. Also read our Article on Induction Suppression.

This movie will show you how to find the Com Port assigned to your Relay Controller. The first half of the video will show you how to do so in Windows Vista and the second half is using Windows XP.
This movie will explain the different expansion options that can be used with our controllers.
A Basic RS232 Relay that's a
Step Above the Compitition!
RS-232 Serial Relay Controller
Our RS-232 Relay Boards are fully E3C complaint, allowing up to 256 NCD devices to share a single RS-232 serial port. Mix and match up to 256 devices in any combination. Speak to each device individually or all devices at once.
To control the this Relay Controller, simply connect a data and ground wire between the Relay Controller and computer or microcontroller. Provide +12 Volts DC to the board, and send ASCII character codes to control the relays.
Even a no-frills design deserves a high-quality driver stage, and that's exactly what we put on our Serial Relay Controllers. Fast-reacting flyback diodes help shunt dangerous voltages away from the driver circuit.
Features include no-click startup, LED status lights, and E3C compliance. Relays can be controlled at 9600 baud and the board is compatible with ANY computer or microcontroller capable of delivering RS-232 data.
Setup for the R220HP RS232 relay shown above using the optional QS12-F6 Quick Start Kit. Simply Connect the Serial Interface to your Relay Controller, connect the Power and Serial Cable and start sending commands.
