Art Controller Relay Board Kit

OverviewPinoutWiringRelated groups
Art Controller Relay Board Kit — Adafruit — 1038

The Art Controller is a multitalented, stand-alone relay module with microcontroller based timing and logic. Easier to adjust and more versatile than most other low-cost time-delay relay modules, the Art Controller can switch AC or DC loads and is reprogrammable to handle the…

Pinout

  • Relay COM

    Common terminal of the SPDT relay output terminal block. Adafruit says COM is connected to NC when idle and to NO when the coil is energised.

    Type · switchVoltage · Recommended load rating 24 V DC / 40 VAC, 5 A; NO contact 10 A only, per Adafruit product page.
  • Relay NC

    Normally-closed relay terminal. Connected to COM when the relay coil is idle or power is removed, per Adafruit product page.

    Type · switchVoltage · Relay contact load terminal, see COM rating.
  • Relay NO

    Normally-open relay terminal. Connected to COM when the relay coil is energised, per Adafruit product page.

    Type · switchVoltage · Relay contact load terminal, see COM rating; Adafruit notes 10 A normally-open only.
  • Trigger input

    Two-pin trigger input for a normally-open button/switch or external low-going logic signal; closing the two trigger pins starts the controller cycle.

    Type · digitalVoltage · Logic/input terminal; product page says low-going signal is perceived like a button press.
  • Input power

Start wiring

Recommended load rating 24 V DC / 40 VAC, 5 A; NO contact 10 A only, per Adafruit product page. · Relay contact load terminal, see COM rating.

Verify supply voltage and logic levels before powering up.

Module pins: Input power. Schematik maps them to your board in the app.

Screw terminal input power for the Art Controller microcontroller and relay.

Type · powerVoltage · Runs from 7-15 V DC through onboard regulator, or 5 V directly, per Adafruit product page.
  • Cancel Trigger

    Auxiliary low-going input that reverts the controller to idle and can prevent new triggers when held low.

    Type · digitalVoltage · Configuration/logic input, held low or connected to ground per Adafruit product page.
  • Trigger @ Reset

    Configuration jumper pin. Soldering this pin to ground makes the controller trigger on power-up.

    Type · configurationVoltage · Jumper to ground per Adafruit product page.
  • Start/Stop on Trigger

    Configuration jumper pin. Soldering this pin to ground makes a second trigger act as cancel/stop.

    Type · configurationVoltage · Jumper to ground per Adafruit product page.
  • Repeat

    Configuration jumper pin. Soldering this pin to ground makes the relay cycle repeat with on/off delay periods.
