- Mechanically : 300 operation/min = every 200msec
- Electrically : 30 operation/min = every 2sec
- Operation Time (Change state) = 10msec Max.
- Release Time (default state) = 5msec Max.
- Contact Capacity = 10A 28VDC; 10A 240VAC
- Coal Voltage = 5VDC
- Nominal Current : 89.3mA
Note: Impossible to connect to Single Board Computer GPIO Pin.
- VCC: 5V
- max input current : approx 4mA

From left to right:
- GND: Connected to negative supply voltage
- IN1: Signal(LOW Level) triggering terminal 1 of relay module
- IN2: Signal(LOW Level) triggering terminal 2 of relay module
- IN3: Signal(LOW Level) triggering terminal 3 of relay module
- IN4: Signal(LOW Level) triggering terminal 4 of relay module
- IN5: Signal(LOW Level) triggering terminal 5 of relay module
- IN6: Signal(LOW Level) triggering terminal 6 of relay module
- IN7: Signal(LOW Level) triggering terminal 7 of relay module
- IN8: Signal(LOW Level) triggering terminal 8 of relay module
- VCC: Connected to positive supply voltage (supply power according to relay voltage) power supply control signals
ON the right: * GND (Ground of JD-VCC) * VCC (Power supply control signals) * JD-VCC (Relay Power Supply)
Per default is a jumper between VCC and JD-VCC. The jumpers removes the isolation (and more noise from coil).
Connection (Variant with Optocoupler and external Power Supply) :
- Remove jumper between VCC and JD-VCC
- Connect VCC-RC and GND from the Relay Module to a Separate 5VDC Supply (1Amp or greater)
- Connect VCC from the Relay Module to 5V on your Orange PI
- Connect GPIO to a IN
- Note: DO NOT connect GND from the Relay Module to your Orange PI
Depending on the version the board could be triggering on high or low signal.
- High Level: Triggered at high level means a forward voltage exists between signal triggering terminal (INx) and negative supply voltage.
- Low Level: triggering terminal (INx) and negative supply voltage is 0V, or the voltage at the triggering terminal is lower than positive supply voltage.

- pin1 indication (*)
- location of pin (=)
According to datasheet max 10msec.
Setup:
- Put 5V at root of output
- Measure time difference between state change at control signal (input) and output
Explanation of image below:
- Green: input (change of at low switches contact (yellow))
- Yellow: Output
- delay : approx 5msec
