DC Relay C Demo

This demonstration program turns each relay on in sequence and then turns them off in sequence. Next it turns all of the relays on, and then turns them all off. Use this demo as a starting point for your own instrumentation project.

// ---------------------------------------------------------------------
// This is the driver code for the DC Relay Module.
// This code:
//     -Initializes the DC Relay Module.
//     -Turns a relay on or off.
//     -Returns the state of the relays.
// ---------------------------------------------------------------------
// Important user words:
// Init_DC_Relay:         Initializes the DC Relay Module.
// Control_DC_Relay:      Turns the specified relay on or off.
// Read_DC_Relay_Status:  Returns the state of the relays.
// WDCM_MODULE_NUM        this constant MUST match hardware jumper settings!
// ---------------------------------------------------------------------
// Notes:
// RELAYS ARE ACTIVE LOW!  WRITING A 1 TO THE RELAY TURNS IT OFF WHILE
// WRITING A 0 TO THE RELAY TURNS IT ON!
