VCM CONNECTION CLOSEUP
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.

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.
