Pickering Reed Relay Sample PCB Instructions for Use
The Pickering Reed Relay Sample PCB allows a user to add an Arduino Nano Every or other pin compatible module to control and evaluate the Reed Relays fitted.
This example test sketch sequences each relay in turn, and may be easily modified by the user to perform specific tests. The example sketch includes the relay to Arduino pin mapping, making it a good basis for user defined modifications.

Please note that it may be required to modify the program for other Arduino types.
If you have any questions, please reach out to techsales@pickeringrelay.com and we will be happy to help.
