Pulsed input
A pulsed switch or voltage output can be connected to a C3 input, for
FYBNQMFBXBUFSçPXNFUFS
The frequency of the pulse must not exceed 1 kHz @ 50% duty cycle
(i.e. not less than 0.5 ms pulse width)
Max 1 kHz

Control output
Devices such as electric pumps can be controlled via the C3 outputs
In situations where mains power is not available to the C3 a low power
switching technique such as the use of a latching relay (Figure 16 right)
must be employed
12 VDC coil relays can be used to control higher voltages (eg. 240 VAC)
In all cases the current limit of the output should be noted
