LR4 Four Channel Latching Relay
Module
1. General Description
The LR4 module uses latching relays that provide the following benefits:
• Low power consumption
Once the control module changes the state of the relay by applying power
to a coil, power can then be removed as the relay mechanically latches its
state. Conventional relays require the power to be continuously present to
hold a relay in one of its states.
• Relay state is non-volatile
Once a relay is set to a desired state, the relay will remain in that state even
if power is lost to the control module. The only way to change the state of
a relay is to send a valid command that instructs the relay state to be
changed or by using the manual toggle button.
