Hey there,
I'm having a slight problem with the aux output on my python 580.
I finished my install back on thanksgiving, and everything went well. Now i'm wanting to go back and drive a relay using the aux output on the system, but after taking a few readings, it only seems to output .58volts. Which is not enough to drive a relay+transistor.
So, i guess my question is... how would i go about driving a relay with such low voltage?
Any help is appreciated!

What are you trying to do with the Aux?

The aux is a (-) 200mA output. It will definitely drive a relay. But for controlling windows you need more than a relay like a 530T window automation module.
