yes I can write a program but I would understand wich is the possibilities that I have ith you boards
at the moment my pc is connected to I/O module by rs485 , I would make the same with your module but with ethernet and the protocol is completly different
In my actual system I read every input and through my software I can choose which out turn off or on.
I could send you some pictures of my software if you want to see
I would create an http server on a PC and set your cards in server mode to let them communicate with the PC, is this idea correct in your opinion?
I was also thinking of using the rs485 port of the KC868-COLB to control air conditions modbus devices but this too must be done through the PC which is connected through the LAN, is this possible?

1. COLB's protocol is different from H32 relay board. H32 use ansi-string format protocol, COLB use HEX format protocol.
2. we can upload the protocol document for developer later, but i think in COLB's PC software, there is a debug function hide, later we can make a video how to see the communication protocol log. maybe prepare it next week.
3. if you want communication by switch button module. i suggest you read state from another RS232 port, or you can let COLB's another RS232 cable connect to H32 controller, then you can use TCP command read switch button state by TCP via H32. i don't know which way you will chose.

Good Morning
first, thank you for your quick reply and kindly support.
I'm having some test,all controllers are set on TCP Server and no problem to send tcp command and http command to H32B, I'm just checking why http command receive always input status on 0 but the button is on
My goals is control all input (button switch board included) to decide which relè turn on/of (for example with a switch today I can turn on relè 1 but tomorrow I could turn on relè 1 + relè 2 or change completely and turn on relè 3) but at the moment I see if I push K1 (on button switch board) always relè 1 (on H32B) turno on, I hope there is the possibility to change this setting and to be able to turn on other relays (relay 2 or 6 for example).
continue....

About hex format, I'm used to program with that, my previus boards were all rs485 and all command were hex but I'm not used to work with IP
I will wait your next video and thanks
