Slave Message Echo Relay

This attribute sends the energize relay command to the DL40 Plus or
DL50 slave addressed in the Send message to slave number attribute.
These commands are sent in addition to any specified message text.

After this attribute sends a relay command to the slave, the slave
relay will not de–energize until another message is sent to the slave
that meets both of the following conditions:

Energize relay is set to No ( to de–energize the relay)

Echo relay to slave is set to Yes (to send a de–energize command
to the slave display)

Notes on Using Message Attributes

If the default attributes are changed, changes apply only to
messages created after that change.

To change the message attributes of a single existing message,
use the

[CTRL][A]

editing function.

Characters from the Extended ASCII, international, and Cyrillic
character sets can only be entered via the Offline Programming
Software. See Appendix D, ASCII Character Sets, for character
set symbols and how to enter these characters in messages.

Refer to the Dataliner DL40 Plus Offline Programming Software
