At the bottom of the k8056 product page on the Velleman website it says:

" Linux software for K8056 relay board
k8056.free.fr "

It seems to be true…

I don’t know whether it has the status of “open source”, but the download available from the Velleman site at

velleman.be/downloads/files/ … b_demo.zip

contains an example written in Visual Basic.

Dear sir,

If you install the example, the source code will also be installed.
so…it’s “open source”.

Please examine the source code of the K8056 test program.
It will allow you to figure out how to use the COM port.
If you do not have a lot of experience, use the test program source as a template for your proper software, just remove every object and code you do not require.

How can i find the source code?

It can be downloaded from our website www.velleman.be
‘downloads’-section.
