The LRM02 consists of 2 Latched Relays meant for switching mains voltage for controlling lights.



Each of the relays can be used in conjunction with a two way switch and current sensor (ordered separately) to control the switching of the light and monitoring of the on/off status by Comfort. 

A Latched Relay does not need any power to maintain its state once it is switched to the Open or Closed position. The LRM02 is a replacement for the TWS02 which saves energy and makes the relay less susceptible to drop out due to voltage surges or over-current. 4 LRM02 (8 relays) can be connected to the 8 outputs of Comfort or LEM without exceeding the  300 milli-amp current limit for the 8 outputs


The Connection diagram is shown below






Unlike TWS02, the current sensor is not built into the LRM. This simplifies the corrections since CSM03-CT which encircles the "Live" wire can have the CSM low voltage wires connected directly to CSM03-PCB pluged into a Zone/Input

One advantage of the circuit is that the two way switch can always control the light independently of Comfort, even if Comfort is not working or switched off. This is an excellent low cost and reliable solution if it is possible to run the two 230V switch wires from the two way switch to the LRM module near Comfort.

The LRM manual can be downloaded from http://www.cytech.biz/latched_relay_module_manual.html

The programming instructions for two way switching using the LRM02 can be found in the manual

A problem has been found when the LRM is used to control some fluorescent lights with Electronic Ballasts. The light may flicker when switched off
This is due to the use of snubbers to protect the relays when switching inductive loads

Please email support@cytech.biz if you have this problem
