SainSmart 16 Channel Controller

General

Interface File
  • libps_sainsmart_usb_interface.so
Supported Since
  • V2.0.0-pr.2
Driver Notes
  • Only one sensor is supported per ECU/machine
  • Overrides can be set to turn all relays on, or set to turn all relays off
    • When either override is enabled the SDF values for channel off/on are ignored
  • No input or output PolySync message types, the interface communicates directly with the device to toggle relays on and off
  • To replay logged sessions, the sainsmart node must first be disabled in the SDF Configurator.

 

PolySync Configuration

No configuration is required, the device is plug-and-play.

 1 Toggle Override
  • Override off: value 0
  • All relays on: value 1
  • All relays off: value 2
 Values stored in the SDF for Channel 1-16 will be ignored when override is active (values 1:2)

4435

 1 All channels off when driver exits.  
  • Disable parameter: value 0
  • Enable parameter: value 1

When enabled, the driver will close all relays before exiting. 

Default behaviour (disabled) will retain the current state of the relays, and exit.

 

Test Interface

The test interface will enable each channel and it's LED in sequence then disable each channel in sequence. You can also hear two sets of audible clicks.

$ dynamic-driver -n 1 -o -t

 Note the command above assumes that you have already defined the SainSmart 16-Channel USB driver interface with the PolySync SDF Configurator, and it has key '1'.
