Controlling relays located in safe area
Sometimes due to security requirements it is not allowed to operate the door lock from the relay in the Turbine station outside the door.
Instead of operating the relay in the door station, one can use the "Virtual I/O" feature to control the relay of an I/O unit (e.g. TKIS unit) which is located in a secure area.

There are three different scripts for relay control:
- Relay ON
- Relay OFF
