GP Modules
The GP (General Purpose) relay modules often consist of independent
latching or non-latching relays. They are useful for creating additional
isolation between circuits, providing safety interlocks, actuating other
relays or circuits, or building special topologies such as binary ladders
and tree structures. A simple 4-channel SPST (Single-pole Single-throw)
GP switch is shown below.
