RELAY FUNCTIONALITY
The relay is operated by setting output bit 0. When powered up, the relay state will initially be unchanged from the state
that existed prior to power down occurring. Four seconds after application of a valid DC supply the module will respond
to Output Bit 0. If the module has not been addressed at this point, then a relay reset will automatically be applied. When
in normal operation, the output state will change within0.1s of a valid change in the command bit.
