Configurable Inputs
These inputs are used to create custom warnings and failures. Using the RapidCore Configuration Software you can change the
text displayed when the warning or failure occurs. If you select one of these inputs without changing the text it will default to 'Config
Warn X' and 'Config Fail X.'
There are also timers associated with the configurable inputs which can be found in the menu under Timers > Trigger Delays >
Config Inputs and Config Fail 3 . These timers change the amount of time the input has to be active before the controller registers
the warning or failure.
NOTE : If the switched input becomes inactive before the trigger delay time expires, the warning or failure will not
occur.
Example: The user wants a pump to turn on 30 seconds after a high water level switch is tripped and remain on until the level
switch turns off.
The level switch is connected to Switched Input C and closes to ground when the water level is too high. The words 'Water
Pumping' are also required to be displayed on the controllers LCD screen. The pump is connected to a slave relay which is
controlled by Switched Output D on the controller.

Switched Outputs
The controller has switched outputs that are turned on under certain conditions to perform a function. The outputs turn on to
+Battery voltage to drive the load when active. The following items are the available functions for switched outputs.
WARNING : Switched outputs have a floating voltage of approximately 8V when off. If using the outputs for digital logic,
it will be necessary to put a pull-down resistor (1 kOhm) from the output to ground to ensure a low logic level when
output is off.
