    In this regard, please also see application examples of the optocoupler you use. Optocoupler cards featuring 8 inputs are available at bmcm (see chapter 6). 3.1.2 Connecting a Push-Button / Switch Please make sure to use a push-button with debounce protection, because otherwise several pulses might be recorded.
  • Page 5 Since the field coil of the relay requires a higher current than provided by the measurement system at one line, a transistor is connected ahead. Relay cards featuring 8 outputs are available at bmcm (see chapter 6). 3.2.3 Connecting a Lamp A transistor can be used to switch higher loads.
  • Page 6 OUT (relay output) I/O (bidirectional) • The port direction of the USB-PIO must comply with the settings of the optocoupler/relay card to avoid damages (optocoupler channels to input, relay channels to output). • For further information, please see the relevant data sheets.
