Binary Input
The binary input status in the Shell is returned via io get bin0 .
Binary Output
The binary output is open in the default configuration. The current of the binary output is limited by a
resettable fuse (200 mA).
Binary inputs and output connections
Binary inputs and output connections example:
All metal parts are connected together with the negative pole of power supply (common pole). However,
the router box may not be connected to the negative pole properly.
Low Power Mode
In applications requiring low power consumption (such as solar power - not 7/24 mode) is strictly
recommended to use LPM mode prior to powering down the entire router.
LPM (Low Power Mode) is a router mode where the router is in sleep mode with minimal power con-
sumption. The router can be woken up from this mode by a signal applied to the BIN0 input or after a
predetermined period of time. Putting the router into LPM mode can be done using the lpm command, see
Commands and Scripts
on the configuration of the router.
