For applications that experience large shocks
and/or vibration on a regular basis (heavy

Turn on* will make the relay more 'sticky' and
thus more resilient against shocks/vibrations.

* This mode will increase the energy usage of the interface (by about 8mA continuously) as it will keep some power applied to
the relay. This will keep the coil of the relay a little bit magnetized, which in turn will make it more 'sticky' to its current state.

Events
A MasterBus based device can initiate an action at another connected device. This is done by configuring Events.
A device can act as event source and as event target.
Other devices can control the relay of the Digital AC 1x6A by setting up an event at the source device with the
Digital AC 1x6A as target. The following example shows how a Digital Switch Input uses Switch 1 to control the
relay with a toggle action.

Likewise, the Digital AC 1x6A can control other devices. The following example shows how event source "State" of
the Digital AC 1x6A, is used to control the feedback LED of a Digital Switch Input.

Overview and functional scheme of the Digital AC 1x6A
3.2 Installation schemes
The Digital AC 1x6A is suitable for switching currents up to 6A. For currents above 6A you need an external relay
which is controlled by the Digital AC 1x6A. You also need to add a fuse like shown for load protection.
