    Relays allow electrical isolation and switching of circuits using electromagnetism. Connecting a relay board to an Arduino is simple, requiring connection of power and ground pins as well as communication pins to digital pins on the Arduino. Code can then be used to control the relays, turning them on and off to power external devices by switching between the normally closed and normally open contacts of each relay.

    tep 2: Interfacing the relay modules to the

    Arduino

    Relays work on electromagnetism, When the Relay coil is


    energized it acts like a magnet and changes the position of a
    switch. The circuit which powers the coil is completely isolated
    from the part which switches ON/OFF, This provides electrical
    isolation. This is the reason we can control a relay using 5V's
    from an arduino and the other end of it could be running an 230V
    appliance, the 230V end is completely isolated from the 5V
    arduino circuitry.

    To connect the 4 Relay board to an Arduino is very easy and


    allows you to turn on and off an wide range of devices, both AC
    and DC. The first to connections are the ground and power pins,
    You need to connect the Arduino +5v to the 4 Relay board VCC
    pin and the Arduino ground to the 4 Relay board GND pin. Then
    its a only a matter of just connecting the communication pins,
    labeled IN1, IN2, IN3 and IN4, two 4 data pinson the Arduino.In
    the example code below we used Arduino pins 7, 8 , 9, 10. Its a
    good idea to avoid using Data pins 0 and 1 as they are used by
    the Arduino for serial communication and can cause problems
    when uploading code to the Arduino.

    The default state of the relay when the power is off for COMM
    (power) to be connected to NC (normally closed), this is the
    equivalent of setting the 4 Relay boards IN pin to HIGH (has +5v
    sent to it) It is a safety feature to notuse the NC connector in-
    case you Arduino looses power it will automatically turns off all
    the devices connected to the relay. When you have something
    connected to the relays NO (Normally Open) connector and you
    set the corresponding IN pin to LOW (0v), power will flow in from
    the COMM connector and out of the NO connectorpowering your
    device..

    Above: Example of connecting power and lights to a relays COM


    and NO connectors.

    Below: Connecting to the Arduino.


    // Basic 4 Realy board connection

    // Each relay is turned on for 2 seconds and then off.

    // You can here them click as there state changes from off to on
    and on to

    // off.

    // You will also see the corresponding Red LED on the 4 Relay
    board

    // light up when the relay is on.

    // define names for the 4 Digital pins On the Arduino

    // These data pins link to 4 Relay board pins IN1, IN2, IN3,

    IN4

    #define RELAY1 6

    #define RELAY2 7

    #define RELAY3 8

    #define RELAY4 9

    void setup()

    // Initialise the Arduino data pins for OUTPUT

    pinMode(RELAY1, OUTPUT);

    pinMode(RELAY2, OUTPUT);

    pinMode(RELAY3, OUTPUT);

    pinMode(RELAY4, OUTPUT);

    void loop()
    {

    digitalWrite(RELAY1,LOW); // Turns ON Relays 1

    delay(2000); // Wait 2 seconds

    digitalWrite(RELAY1,HIGH); // Turns Relay Off

    digitalWrite(RELAY2,LOW); // Turns ON Relays 2

    delay(2000); // Wait 2 seconds

    digitalWrite(RELAY2,HIGH); // Turns Relay Off

    digitalWrite(RELAY3,LOW); // Turns ON Relays 3

    delay(2000); // Wait 2 seconds

    digitalWrite(RELAY3,HIGH); // Turns Relay Off

    digitalWrite(RELAY4,LOW); // Turns ON Relays 4

    delay(2000); // Wait 2 seconds

    digitalWrite(RELAY4,HIGH); // Turns Relay Off
