8.3 AUX socket
The AUX socket can be used for the supply of an external device (e.g. an optocoupler) or to
control certain setups (see paragraph 7.8, page 68) or scenarios (see paragraph 7.9, page 70). The
pin assignments are shown below (see Fig. 70). In case the select pins are activated, the
maximum current is 12 mA. The other pins are used internally and cannot be used otherwise. The
socket is a Lumberg SV81 8P.
