Typical Smart Vibration Switch Installation Basic Installation Installation for Use with an External Relay This is a typical installation for use with a pilot/indicator light (or other load) where the current is ≤500 mA. No reset switch is required since the Smart Vibration Switch is set to NL (Non-Latching). This is a typical installation for use with an external SPDT or DPDT relay (see page 8 for relay selections). This configuration is used when the load requires >500 mA or when using a DPDT relay to switch two circuits using a single Smart Vibration Switch. The switching can be normally open,...
