How to convert the board

  • Remove the thick [blue] wire taking mains directly from the input pin to the output pin

  • Cut the board close to the relay pin, where the extra wire is soldered marked in the photo, this stops any mains reaching the relay.

  • A Dremel with cutting tool works well, to remove any track or board at that location.

  • Solder any wire [a short strand of Ethernet cable can be used] to the relay pin and output pin formerly used by the blue cable.

  • Make a small groove in the side of the board to allow the wire to pass from underneath to above.

  • Use a meter to test to see if there is any connection between input pins and output pins, there must be none

  • In the App set Inching mode for the device to .5 seconds
