4. Driftstilstande
The module supports three primary working modes, configurable within the eWelink APP:
- Self-locking Mode (Default): In this mode, each channel operates independently. Pressing the button once turns the relay ON, and pressing it again turns it OFF.
- Krybningstilstand: When activated, the relay will turn ON for a set duration (e.g., 0.5 seconds) after the button is pressed, then automatically turn OFF. This is useful for momentary actions like opening a garage door.
- Interlock-tilstand: In this mode, only one channel can be ON at a time. If one channel is activated, any other active channel will automatically turn OFF. This is suitable for applications where only one operation should occur at a time.
5. Remote Control and App Usage
5.1 eWelink APP Control
Once paired, you can control the module from anywhere using the eWelink APP. The app provides individual control for each of the four channels, as well as options for 'All ON' and 'All OFF'.
