1Connect wires to board
To use Canique Switch, you need to connect at minimum:
VCC - connect to a power supply 2.25-3.15V
GND - connect to GND of power supply
SET - connect to a microcontroller or drive manually
RST - connect to a microcontroller or drive manually
ZZ - connect to a microcontroller or drive manually(SET/RST/ZZ are relative to GND.)
AC Load
For an AC load that you want to switch on/off, you need to connect:
L (Live) - connect this to the live (L) wire of your AC supply
NO (Normally open) / NC (Normally closed) - connect one of them to your load. The NO/NC output is either internally disconnected or internally connected to the wire that you attached to L depending on the relay state. NO means if the relay is off, NO has no connection to L, and gets connected to L as soon as the relay switches on. NC is the exact opposite of NO.For examply, usually you'd connect a LED light bulb to NO.
Connect the N (Neutral) wire of your load directly to the N wire of your AC supply.
DC Load
For a DC load that you want to switch, you need to connect:
L (Live) - connect this to the VCC of your DC power supply (max 220V DC)
NO (Normally open) / NC (Normally closed) - connect one of them to the positive input of your load.Connect the GND of your load directly to the GND of your DC power supply.

2Turn relay on
- Drive ZZ high (to volage of VCC, e.g. 3V)
- Drive SET high, drive RST low
- Wait for ~10ms
- Drive ZZ, SET, RST low or disconnect them (high impedance).
- If you want you can also disconnect VCC/GND. The relay will keep its turned on state.
