The InPower VCM-07 is a completely solid state
relay/flasher with a single +12 volt @ 15 amp output. This versatile module
can be used as a 15 amp output relay or as a single output flasher for
operating LED or high current incandescent or halogen lamps.
The module has two inputs, one actuated by a transition to +12 volts (Input
A) and one actuated by a transition to ground (Input B). The two inputs
operate as a logical “Exclusive OR” so that either input can cause the unit
to operate.
When an input is applied and maintained, the output will activate. The
operation will depend on the setting of the adjustment of the single turn
timing potentiometer. If the setting is full counterclockwise the output
will turn on and stay on as long as the input is set. As the timing
potentiometer is adjusted clockwise the output will start to flash at an
increasing frequency (up to 80 flashes per minute). The duty cycle is 50%.
Therefore, the VCM-07 can operate as a relay when the adjustment is
counterclockwise, or as a single output flasher when the adjustment is set
to the desired flash rate.
The output will activate when +12 volts is applied to Input A while Input B
is open, or when ground is applied to Input B while Input A is open. The
input must be maintained to operate the unit. The output is rated at +12
volts @ 15 amps and provides over current and short circuit shut down
protection.
The InPower VCM-05.X is a completely solid state adjustable one-shot timer
relay with a single +12 volt @ 15 amp output. The module has two inputs, one
actuated by a transition to +12 volts (Input A) and one actuated by a
transition to ground (Input B). The two inputs operate as a logical
“Exclusive OR” so that either input can cause the timer to operate.
If the module is not already in a time-out sequence, its output will be
activated for the adjustable time period when +12 volts is applied to Input
A while Input B is open, or when ground is applied to Input B while Input A
is open. In other words, the module will not start another time sequence
until both inputs are removed and the module is not in a time-out sequence.
An input control signal must be applied for a minimum of 250 milliseconds,
with its counterpart input open, to initiate a time-out sequence. Also, both
control inputs must be removed for at least one second before another
time-out sequence can be initiated. The time period is adjustable with a
single turn potentiometer. Four time ranges are available: 0-10 seconds,
0-60 seconds, 0-3 minutes, and 0-10 minutes. The output is rated at +12
volts @ 15 amps and provides over current and short circuit shut down
protection.
The InPower Time Delay Relays are completely solid state adjustable on-delay
or off-delay timer relays with a single +12 volt @ 15 amp output. The module
has two inputs, one actuated by a transition to +12 volts (Input A) and one
actuated by a transition to ground (Input B). The two inputs operate as a
logical “Exclusive OR” so that either input can cause the timer to operate.
When an input is applied and maintained, the timer will start. When the
timer expires the output will be activated (VCM03 series) or de-activated
(VCM04). The output will remain in the desired state until both inputs are
open (cleared). The time period is adjustable with a single turn
potentiometer. Four time ranges are available: 0-10 seconds, 0-60 seconds,
0-3 minutes, and 0-10 minutes.
The timer will start when +12 volts is applied to Input A while Input B is
open, or when ground is applied to Input B while Input A is open. The input
must be maintained to operate the timer. If removed during the timer
operation (before the timer expires) the operation will reset. The
output is rated at +12 volts @ 15 amps and provides over current and short
circuit shut down protection.
Our VCM modules use a standard 5 pin relay
socket configuration, but are entirely solid-state, and customizable for a
variety of applications.

The InPower VCM-01 is a completely solid state alternating latching relay
with a single +12 volt or + 24 vold @ 15 amp output. The module has two inputs, one
actuated by a transition to +12 or +24 volts (Input A) and one actuated by a
transition to ground (Input B). The two inputs operate as a logical
“Exclusive OR” so that either input can cause the output to latch (or
unlatch).
The output will toggle to the opposite state when +12 or +24 volts is applied to
Input A while Input B is open, or when ground is applied to Input B when
Input A is open. Another toggle will not be recognized until both inputs are
open. To toggle the module’s output, a control input signal must be applied
for at least 250 milliseconds with its counterpart input open. All control
inputs must be removed for at least one second before the module will
recognize another toggle control input. When +12 or +24 volts is first applied to
its power terminal (86) the module will initialize in the output off state.
The output is rated at +12 or +24 volts @ 15 amps and provides over current and
short circuit shut down protection.

The InPower VCM-08 warning lamp flasher represents a breakthrough in solid
state flasher technology. The use of advanced SMT and packaging technology
results in a very compact, high performance flasher with exceptional
reliability and low cost.
The VCS-08 flasher is a completely solid state dual output alternating
warning lamp flasher. Its outputs are rated at +12 volts @ 15 amps each, and
are designed to operate high in-rush current halogen and incandescent lamps,
as well as LED lights.
When a ground is applied to the input, the outputs will alternately flash at
a rate of 75 cycles per minute at a 50% duty cycle. The solid state outputs
are a unique design that will automatically shut off if an over current or
short circuit fault occurs. If a fault shut down occurs on one output the
other output will remain operational.
