Gray/Light Blue/Blue/Purple ACC 5-6 / 500ma (-) Outputs
These four wires will supply a 500ma (-) output and in most cases will require
the use of external relays. You can use these to connector to a direct
accessory that requires a 500ma (-) or less trigger. For any other type of
control, these outputs should be coupled with an external relay, where by
the relay coil is grounded by this output. See section 0, page 16 for details.
