Need help with my RELAY
Archiver
Posts: 46,084
Hello Everyone
Please I need help or any direction.
What I have:
Opto 22 - 8 channels
Basic Stamp Interface
Relay output 110V
What I did:
9 volt to interface
5+ Volt to opto 22 (from interface)
I installed a relay in number 2
I install a 6 volts C.C. lamp in the relay to turn on/off by the
program.
The program:
I var word
for i=1 to 10
high 2
pause 1000
low 2
next
Results:
The lamp turn on (never turn off)
But the led of the relay turn on and off ten times.
Am I doing something bad?
I will appreciate any help about my situation.
Thanks

Unless there is a error in the wiring try a (pause 1000) under
the
(low 2) before the (next). The relay maybe switching so fast the 110
device is not having enough time to turn off.

If I had to write your code I would put in a PAUSE 1000 just after
LOW 2, before the 'NEXT'.
In your code as it is now the program jumps from LOW 2 to HIGH 2
imediately. That is why it does not switch off the lamp :-).

Klaus
