Introduction
============
Relax is a tool to control any of the 8-bit relay-cards around. It has
a simple, but powerfull GUI for easy and fast handling. There are four
different modes how the control can be done:
1. Direct
---------
In this mode all the acting is done directly. There are some buttons avail,
like AllOn, AllOff, Invert, 1, 2, 3...
2. Random
---------
Here a random-generator decides which realy get switched. Useless realys
can be switched off and the pause between the next step is setable.
3. Step
-------
Two or more commands can be added to a list. The loopable list can be
run with different times in pause. There can be unlimited entrys in a list.
4. Time
-------
And here acting is done at defined times. Per step, a begin- and end-
contition can be defined to various times. Also here there can be
unlimited entrys in a list.
All functions from the GUI are also avail via ARexx.

Nice software, I guess, but I think the audience won't be very large. :-) |

Posted by Anonymous on 16-Jul-2004 07:48 GMT | This is great news. I think i could find that quite useful. I appreciate it that you support both AmigaOS and MorphOS. That's how it should be. Any possibility to get OS4 version too someday ? |

Posted by Rupert Hausberger on 16-Jul-2004 09:43 GMT | In reply to Comment 6 (Anonymous): Think there will be no OS4-version, cos the AOne is too expensive for me...
Maybe someday OS4 becomes avail for classic Amigas, then yes.

Posted by Anonymous on 16-Jul-2004 18:21 GMT | In reply to Comment 9 (Rupert Hausberger): OS4 for Classic Amigas equiped with BPPC and CSPPC cards....but
perhaps those upgrades were too expensive for you too?
doesnt matter - if its nice clean OS3.x code it'll work on OS4
via the emulation anyway! |
