  • Kragtoevoer: The module can be powered in two ways:
    • Via Micro USB: DC 5V/0.5A.
    • Via Terminal Block: DC 7V-48V/0.5A.
  • Aflosverbindings: Each of the four relays has three terminals:
    • NEE (normaalweg oop): The circuit is open when the relay is off, and closes when the relay is activated.
    • COM (Algemeen): Die gemeenskaplike terminaal vir die relais.
    • NC (Normaalweg Gesluit): The circuit is closed when the relay is off, and opens when the relay is activated.

3. Koppeling van toestelle

  • Power on the EW-4CH module.
  • Open the eWelink APP and tap the '+' icon to add a device.
  • Follow the in-app instructions to put the device into pairing mode (usually by pressing and holding the pairing button on the module until the WiFi indicator light blinks).
  • Connect the device to your 2.4 GHz WiFi network.

Bedryfsmodusse

The EW-4CH supports two main operating modes: Inching (Momentary) and Self-locking (Toggle).

  • Duimmodus: The relay activates for a set duration (e.g., 0.5 to 3600 seconds) and then automatically deactivates. This is suitable for applications like garage door openers or pulse-triggered devices.
  • Selfsluitende modus: The relay toggles its state with each activation. One press turns it on, another press turns it off. This is suitable for traditional on/off control of lights or appliances.

You can configure these modes within the eWelink APP for each relay independently.
