There are three green LEDs which are connected to three control lines. LEDs light
up for the LOW state of control lines (i.e. when current passes through the diodes
of the opto-couples).

Details
This Tibbit is optimized for the nominal input voltage of 24V. If no external resistor is
added these inputs activate at about 13V. Forward current should not exceed
10mA, and this caps the maximum input voltage at around 30V. Add external
resistors if you need to apply higher input voltage.
Note that these are not "isolated inputs" -- they share the ground line with the rest
of your system. Still, the optical stage isolates your system from noise, ESD, spikes,
and other external influences.
Combine this Tibbit with terminal block devices --
(four terminal blocks).
