Relequick's Easy Control digital module
Easy Control plug-and-play modules
Relequick's Easy Control plug-and-play modules are multifunction and multivoltage modules with the help of which you will be able to program and control timing and low-frequency counter functions. Easy Control module as mounted on a socket on DIN rail
Our Easy Control MQ series can be plugged on our SQ2 and SQ4 sockets, thus being able to control up to 4-contact relays and to commute 16A, 10A or 5A per contact.
Easy Control is able to receive and process signals from the B input of our sockets, as well as external ones coming from a PLC, a sensor or any other required source of signals. With this input users will be able to manage and control the programmed timing and counting functions, changing the relay state depending on the number of cycles completed by the upcoming signal.
Models and references
MQSMM - Standard Easy Control
Its 21 programmable functions can be customized thanks to the silicone buttons placed on its upper side. The state of the programmed timing or low-frequency counter functions and of the relay itself can be monitored on a built-in LCD screen.
MQPMM - Programmable Easy Control
It features the same functions as the Standard Easy Control but also a mini-USB input port that will allow any user to program the relay on a PC thanks to our programming software. With this user-friendly application you will be able to set up your own complex functions by nesting and mixing of different timing and counting structures.
This Easy Control model turns this module into a mini-PLC with one input and a relay output.
Module uses and advantages
Functions
The modules provide two groups of standard functions:
  • Simple timing functions, timing functions managed by a B-signal and symmetric / asymmetric timing functions.
  • Simple counting functions, as well as symmetric / asymmetric cycle-counting functions.
Uses and applications
The module can be used when timing and cycle counting is needed within load control processes. It can also control resistive and inductive loads with up to 4 change-over contacts and a 16A relay commutation output.
Advantages
You can easily select one of our up to 21 available predefined functions by using the built-in silicone buttons and LCD screen. Complex structures can be built by combining those functions on our programming software, which can then be loaded onto the module from the PC through a mini-USB connection.
The programmable functions can work on wide timing (0.1 seconds to 999 hours) and counting range (up to 999,000 cycles), with a timing precision of ±0.05%. The module can work on inputs from 24VAC to 230VAC and from 6VDC to 115VDC.
Our Easy Control modules need no batteries and thus no maintenance work, which makes them environmental friendly. Once its lifetime has come to an end or in case the relay is not working properly, it can just be replaced by a new one without need to dismount or unwire the system. That means you will have it running again quickly, saving money and improving service time.
The set relay / socket / Easy Control module is basically equivalent to a PLC with one input/output for easy and low-cost applications. Its versatility enables us to perform simple changes on our production processes in order to customize the product for customer-specific applications.

3 Switch off delay by B signal Connected relay Rising edge (timing begin) Switch off delay by B signal diagram Delay timing (t) to the relay disconnection at the detection of a rising edge on the B signal
4 Switch on by rising edge of B and switch off delay after a falling edge of B Disconnected relay Rising edge (closes the relay) / Falling edge (switch off timing begin) Switch on by rising edge of B and and switch off delay after a falling edge of B Relay is switched on by a rising edge of B. A falling one begins a delay timing (t) before switching the relay off. A new falling edge resets the timing.
5 Switch off delay by rising edge of B Disconnected relay Rising edge (closes the relay and begins timing) Switch off delay by rising edge of B diagram Relay is switched on by a rising edge of B and a delay timing (t) begins before switching the relay off.
6 Switch off delay by falling edge of B Disconnected relay Falling edge (closes the relay and begins timing) Switch off delay by falling edge of B diagram Relay is switched on by a falling edge of B and a delay timing (t) begins before switching the relay off.
7 Switch off delay by rising or falling edge of B Disconnected relay Rising / falling edge (closes the relay and begins timing) Switch off delay by rising edge of B diagram Relay is switched on by an edge of B and a delay timing (t) begins before switching the relay off. A new edge detected on B resets and restarts the timing.
8 Switch on delay stopped by rising edges of B Disconnected relay Rising edge (pauses timing) / Falling edge (resumes timing) Switch on delay stopped by rising edges of B diagram A delay timing (t) starts before switching on the relay. Every rising edge detected on B pauses the timing process, which is resumed when a falling edge is detected on the signal.
9 Switch on delay stopped by falling edges of B Disconnected relay Falling edge (pauses timing) / Rising edge (resumes timing) Switch on delay stopped by falling edges of B diagram A delay timing (t) starts befores switching on the relay. Every falling edge detected on B pauses the timing process, which is resumed when a rising edge is detected on the signal.
