==Getting Started==

===Checking the Contents===
{{UGbox|
'''You should have received:'''
* An SSR Relay board
* An SSR Relay connector cable
|
'''In order to test your new Phidget you will also need:'''
* A PhidgetInterfaceKit 8/8/8 or PhidgetTextLCD
* A USB cable
*A 9V battery, a battery connector
*An incandescent bulb
||}}

===Connecting the Pieces===
{{UGbox|
#Connect the positive/red wire from the battery to one output terminal of the SSR Board
#Connect negative/black wire from the battery to one of the bulb wire.
#Connect the bulb wire to the other output terminal of the SSR board.
#Attach the SSR Board to your PhidgetInterfaceKit by connecting a wire from the terminal block marked with a + to a digital output, and another wire from the terminal block marked with a "G" to any ground terminal on the InterfaceKit.
#Connect the PhidgetInterfaceKit Board to your computer using the USB cable.

===Running Phidgets Sample Program===

{{UGwin2|'''InterfaceKit-full'''}}

{{UGbox|
Double Click on the [[File:Ph.jpg|link=]] icon to activate the Phidget Control Panel and make sure that the '''Phidget InterfaceKit 8/8/8''' is properly attached to your PC.

|
#Double Click on '''Phidget InterfaceKit 8/8/8''' in the Phidget Control Panel to bring up InterfaceKit-full and check that the box labelled Attached contains the word True.
#Turn the bulb on and off by clicking on the Digital output box.
#The bottom row of the digital out shows the status of the request, while the top row displays the status of the digital output as reported by the 3054 Relay.

==Technical Details==
===Solid State Relays===
Solid State Relays, or SSRs, are devices designed to operate like standard relays but without mechanical motion. Built instead out of silicon transistors, SSRs allow currents and voltages to be switched by simple digital signals from a microprocessor or any other device that can supply the small amount of current needed to activate the SSR’s internal switching mechanism. For more information on solid state relays, refer to the [[Solid State Relay Primer|SSR Primer]].
===Protection Devices===
The SSR Board is safe to use with sensitive control devices like microprocessors, and will not damage a Phidget device or your PC. Optoisolation between the control inputs and outputs of the SSR in the form of a GaAs LED paired with a set of optically-controlled MOSFETs provides protection from output to input. An on-board 47V bidirectional transorb across the relay output protects the board from static electricity and surges from inductive loads.

===Using the SSR Board===
{{UGbox|
Using the SSR Relay Board in your application is typically done according to the diagram on the right, though there are other implementations for it as well.
