Wiring an EZEye photocell to HAI OmniProII

[madas]

Hi Fred,

I just got back to this project. Sorry for the long wait (I was having new siding put on the house).

With the EZEye connected to the relay, +12V to one side and the White wire to the other I hear the relay click based on the light conditions. The strange thing is if I do a continuity test on the switched terminals it never changes (i.e. the NC is always closed and the NO is always open). Shouldn't the continuity (beeping on the meter) change based on whether the relay is activating or not?

My guess would be that the EZEye doesn't produce enough current to power my relay. Is there anything else I can do to try and get this to work?

Thank you

Try using ELK 924 Sensitive Relay Board only needs 1.2 mils to trigger

ELK924 did the trick. Thank you!

Hi All,
 
  Just received my Leviton 4 relay module.
  Can someone please confirm the wiring?
  My guess:

1. J1 to Earth GND on OMNI Panel
2. T1 to EZEye White wire (Digital Output)
3. T2 to EZEye Red wire (+12V)
4. Relay 1 NO to OMNI Zone "-" input
5. Relay 2 NO to OMNI Zone "+" input

  Correct?
 
Thanks,
  Randy
