If I have the relay turned on and it loses power will it still be on when the power is restored or would I have to use the remote to turn it on?

This is a normally "closed" switch, so when power is interrupted you must re-energize the relay with the remote.

If the relay is turned on and it loses power, it will turn off. When power is restored, it will remain off until it is turned back on with the remote.You hear a click from the relay unit when it is turned on or off. When it loses power, you will hear the click which is turning it off.I hope this helps you. :-)

I think you need to turn it on each time the power is off and back on. I am using it as an exhaust controller which uses engine vacumm to activate the exhaust. I need to activate it every time I want to make the exhaust more quiet.

The relay contacts do not supply power. You use them as a switch for the power you wish routed through them.If you are that unfamiliar with power control devices, then you may consider not working with high voltage circuits.This is pretty basic stuff... the relay closures are not a switched AC outlet.

No it will not turn back on . You will turn the heater back on after loss of power . This is a safety feature that will prevent a fire .

Someone already answered this just above you. This was the top one, I think: I unplugged my unit to test it and it came back on. I believe that the on/off switch has to be physically depressed to turn the unit off, so it should come back on when power is restored.

No, it doesn't........and the first time you have to turn it on after power outage or being unplugged is by the button on the front of the heater itself, then the remote will work.

Our power went out for an hour last week. The timer did not have to be reset after the power came back on. Also, I found it easier to program the timer if I plug it into an extension cord to program it, and you can disconnect it to plug it in directly to the power receptacle on the wall without losing the programming (if it is fully charged).

Hi Christa!Yes, with a power outage this would go out, because it is plugged into the wall. I, personally, keep it plugged in to a socket that has its own switch to turn it on off. I always keep it on, so if the power goes out (as it has in my house), when the power comes back on, as long as it is still plugged back in, it comes right back on by itself! Hope that answers your question! :)

I installed relay on my 2014 Silverado because of the flickering, took care of the problem and, well on my truck the lights turn on when truck turns on but you could still turn them off manually. Well at least on my truck I wouldn't know if other

To expand on what Marcus said, if you were to turn off your TV manually, the remote doesn't know that. However, if this happens, there's a Help button on the remote you can use to get everything working again. It asks you several yes/no questions about the status of your equipment, and once you're done going through that, then everything's working again.

I'm having the same problem. Do you know if you unplugged the unit while it was on? This happened with mine, and it is the only thing I can think of that happened to it. It still doesn't answer the question of whether replacing the remote will help, unfortunately.

I cannot say for sure but I think that anytime the power is lost the units would shut off and would manually have to be turned on. To be sure I would call Manufacturer Sorry I couldn't help.

It does not power on automatically. You have to use the remote as far as I know.

depends on how you wire itIf you wire it to the existing wiring it should work withthe remote but puts a very heavy load on your wiring-using a relay would be the smart thing to do

If I understand correctly: If you are using the motion sensor to control this relay, the motion sensor itself may not be giving the necessary voltage or output to operate it correctly. All I can add is to make sure you have the power leg and switch leg on properly. A multi-meter (reading volts) could help find your issue. Hope this helps.

No...when you have a power failure, it opens the circuit...just like if you turned off the light switch controlling the light/fan. Just turn the light back on using the litex remote.

Josie, the remote receives it power from the wall switch. When the switch is on, the remote is powered. When the switch is off, the remote is not powered. Therefore, the wall switch must always be in the on position. I did have a problem when I connected both the power leads in the fan/light to the remote. When I use only one of the power leads and capped the other one off, everything started working just fine. Hope this helps.Lee

Assuming the AC does not draw more than 15 amps @ 110 volts AND it has a mechanical rather than an electronic on/off switch. If the on/off is mechanical and it is left in the on position, cutting power to the outlet will shut the unit down and restoring power to the outlet will turn it on. On the other hand, if the unit has an electronic switch, and it is turned off by cutting power to the outlet the AC will shut down, but restoring power to the outlet will,not restore power to the AC because of the nature of the AC's electronic switch which requires a touch to manually turn it on, which defeats the whole purpose of the outlet's ability to remotely control devices.
