Emartee Relay Shield
Description
Arduino Relay Shield is a smart module with 4 solid relays providing an easy way for applications of voltage controlling from low to high. The max switching power could be DC*0W or AC**0VA. It could be directly controlled by Arduino through digital IOs with external 9V supply. With the RFBee socket and **5/**3M RF module interface, the Relay shield could be remotely controlled, making it be easily used in robotics, industry control, smart house etc.
Compatible with UNO and Duemilanove
Please Note: For using with Arduino Uno, you need to be careful the pins on the Shield should not be touched with USB connector when they are connected.

Cautions:
Please be very careful while operating high voltage circuits! You may get hurt (dead! ) or hurt any connected equipment if you don't know what you're doing or if you make a mistake.
Schematic:
4 groups of channels for High voltage connection
COM1 Common pin
NC1 Normally Closed - NC1 is connected with COM1
When control port D0 is set low and disconnected when D0 is high
NO1 Normally Open - NO1 is disconnected from COM1
When control port D0 is set low and connected when D0 is high
Groups **4 are similar to Group 1, except for the control ports being D*-D3.
9V power supply connection
The function of the Terminal and the Jack is the same since they are internally connected, and you can choose either of them in needs.
IO controlling 4 on-board relays
D*-D3 4pins could be connected directly with Arduino pin number of **4, so that four relays could be easily controlled by the Arduino.
**5M RF control interface
Together with pin of GND and 5V, they are the interface for **5M RFmodule to control the 4 relays remotely.
RFBee directly control interface
The 4 relays could be directly controlled by the RFBee through the 4 DIO ports of RFBee.
RFBee cascading control interface
As the RFBee has *2 DIO ports, 2more Relay Shield (8 more relays) could be controlled through one RFBee. HUB1 and HUB2 are the drawn-out ports of RFBee (4 as a group), which is connected to **5M RF interface of the cascading Relay Shield.
Usage:
1, With Arduino
Relay Shield could be directly controlled by Arduino.
Step1. Plug Relay Shield onto Arduino Duemilanove (or compatible) board;
Step2. Supply 9V DC power to Arduino;
Step3. Download the example code and run in Arduino IDE.
2, With **5M RF Module
Step1. Plug the Receiver onto the Relay Shield.
Step2: Supply the Relay Shield with 9V DC power.
Step3: Control the Transmitter.
