This action will command a relay output on an NT-RELAY device for each scheduled event. The NT-RELAY is a stand-alone IP based device that has two relay outputs and two binary inputs. The relay outputs can be used to control auxiliary devices (e.g., lighting, pumps, door strike, etc.)
Important: The NT-RELAY can be scheduled internally using the Command Center Software. It is recommended to disable scheduling to any NT-RELAY device relays that will be controlled via Events2HVAC. These schedules will override any commands previously send by Events2HVAC until the next change of state sent by Events2HVAC.
This action applies to the following event triggers:
•EventStartStop
•EventSetupTeardown
•ZoneFirstLastEventStartStop
•ZoneFirstLastSetupTeardown

Verify Button
To verify the device can be read over the network, click on the verify button. You will see some information coming back from the NT-RELAY to verify communications and read the state of the device.
The “Show All States” checkbox will show the NT-Relay states for all of the I/O on the device instead of just the relay state.
Test Start Button
Click the “Test Start” button to test sending a command when an event start is triggered. You will see the status of the relay after the command is sent.
Test Stop Button
Click the “Test Stop” button to test sending a command when an event stop is triggered. You will see the status of the relay after the command is sent.
