2.4 DI/DO Internal Structure and Wire Connection
2.4.1 DI Internal Structure
2.4.2 DI mode- NC (normal close)
The NC mode is used as normal close in relay application as follows. The
logical value of DI is 1 when the relay is ON in normal use. When the relay is
triggered as relay open, the logical value of DI is 0 and the alarm SMS would be
sent to the users.

2.4.3 DI mode- NO (normal open) and Counter
The wire connection in counter and NO modes are the same. The NO mode is
used as normal open in relay application as follows. The logical value of DI is 0
when the relay is close in normal use. When the relay is triggered as relay close, the
logical value of DI is 1 and the SMS would be sent. If the counter mode is set, the
trigger signal must be maintained as 25 ms ~ 200 ms.

2.8 Charge and discharge of Li-Battery
If users apply the Li-Battery on GT-530, the Li-battery would be charged by the
external power automatically. When the external power is removed from GT-530, the
power supplying to GT-530 is from Li-Battery. If the voltage of Li-Battery is lower than
the preset limit, GT-530 can send the SMS message to inform the users.
Note: A new Li-Battery can supply power to GT-530 for 36 hours without the
external power. The power volume of Li-Battery would be decreasing for a
long time. It is recommended to change the Li-Battery every 6 months.
