Inputs 

Input Header Characteristics 

The inputs for the LR900 are used to trigger actions and transmissions. When an input is 
pulled low (shorted to pin 9 of J9) the LR900 turns on the associated output for 2 seconds 
(Input 1 turns on Output 1). 
 
Some features of the inputs: 

1)  DO NOT apply any voltage to the inputs. Only connect an input to pin 9 of J1. 

Although the inputs have diodes to protect them from incoming voltages, they 
should only be pulled low. 

2)  The inputs are protected from moderate voltage spike. Large voltage spikes will 

overwhelm the input protection and damage the processor. Therefore keep 
wires leading to the inputs as short as possible and twist the wires to reduce 
voltage spikes. 

3)  Node Inputs are normally not transmitted to other Nodes (See Advanced 

Information). 

4)  If an input is retriggered within 2 seconds, the associated output will not be 

turned off. 

5)  Each input has a pull up resistor of 470 Ohms.
