3. Important Notes:
1. Use the reed switch should pay attention to the operating voltage, current,operating current not
exceeding 30mA.
2. Require the installation of the current limiting resistor when using reed switch
3. Current limiting resistor is calculated by:
4. R=V/I R=Limiting resistor V=Input voltage I=Maximum current(0.03A=30mA)
