hi, i have a few questions outputs. my inverter is a [se32 24 V dc -to 240V ac] with4 outputs,and 1battery 24V + terminal. the manual states these are 'open collector transistors which can sink 100Ma each or 25Ma if connecting a contactor directly.max voltage on outputs is 60volts dc'
1- can i connect a transistor/darlington to output, to drive a relay
2- if so , how ? [probably a stupid ?, but i dont want to damage these outputs ]
3 - would i be better off using small relay to drive a bigger relay. [starts getting a bit messy, for me anyway]
4 - whats the difference between ,say, a relay/light etc Ma, and a contactor Ma.[as above]. 100Ma -vs 25Ma.i thought an amp is an amp
5-what exactly does 'outputs is 60 V max' mean , when the bat+ terminal is 24V [another silly ? ]
thanks in advance for any replies...dennis..
