Hey all i have the following 5v relay board:
Please ignore the light bulb hook up. That was an example on the website that had the same relay![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
And i am looking to hook one of the relays up to a monetary switch:
Now this is what i am guessing is the way i connect the switch to the relay board:
Connecting the ground to both the left connector pads on the switch and shorting them together "presses" the button. I just want to make sure the hookup i have drawn there is the way it should be connected to that relay board?
So when i apply 5v to the pin 1 on the relay board (Arduino Digital pin 3 goes high) it will close the circuit in relay 1 which will act as if i "pressed" the button?
