When the relay is activated, the Change Over (CO) terminal is connected to the Normally Open (NO) terminal. When the relay is deactivated, the CO terminal is disconnected from to the Normally Closed (NO) terminal. After the board is reset, all relays are deactivated. Both sides of the relay are connected to the connector, one side is CHnA and the other is CHnB, where n is 1 to 38 (see the table for J6 Connector's pins ).
