Hello everybody,
I have an pixhawk orange cube as arducopter, and I wanted to activate Aux Out 5 as a relay.
I also set the parameters in Mission Planner:
BRD_PWM_COUNT = 4
AUX out was set to 54, relay 2
And when I go into the Flight Data menu and want to test the Relay 2 function, nothing happens, only with servo output No.13, there I get a voltage change when clicking, between 0.1 - 0.3 V
How does this relay output work? Is this an open / close contact? Or how should it work this relay output? Do you need an additional relay board?
Where exactly do you have to connect the contacts?
I want to turn a headlight on and off.
Don’t understand the logic behind it.
thanks, i know this documentation, but on which pins exactly must be connected to get this 3,3Volt?
See my scheme/pictures with the connectors.
For example: i nedd a relay output on Aux 5, setted as relay 2, and i have setted it so, but it didn´t works.
i´ve setted it to rc13, that must be aux5?
I have measured, here are permanently 3,3 Volt but no reaction when i´m going in my herelink remote control, button configuration an i´m setting the button to relay no. 2, no changes, no reaction.

i´ve rebooted but, no effect.
i have permanently 3,3 Volt measured on GND and signal pin on aux 5 port, but i cannot intrerupt them.
Thank you very much for your help.
The configuration looks correct for Relay 2 output on Aux 5 from an RC chan 13 input. On Mission planners Radio Calibration Screen does it show Chan 13 changing PWM when you select the switch you programmed? I believe it will turn on >1800 and turn of under that with some dead band. If this doesn’t work try disconnecting the 5V supply to the Output rail and try again.
