Relay for antenna switching
« on: August 08, 2024, 04:09:25 pm »
Hello, does anyone have suggestions for a suitable relay to switch the antenna input of the P275 using GPIO outputs? Thanks.

I'm using this board https://pira.cz/show.asp?clanek=prepinac_anten_HMC253 from eBay
in this project https://pira.cz/monitor/

You can directly connect the alarm/gpio outputs to the board's pins A, B, C to switch up to 8 antennas  8)

Soon I will publish the new script files for the monitoring.

Wow, great  :D
Can it also be powered via the alarm out? Is the power sufficient?

Yes, exactly. I'm using it that way.
