Hi there, i have another concern, this time related to relays..
I know there has been lots of talks about it on this thread but i'd like to be sure i get those words right... so please someone tell me if i can connect things like in my high quality drawing or if i totally missed something?..
Thanks a lot!!

I think that's been standard practice in this build, and no one has reported issues. Of course, it's possible that it may cause the relay to wear faster, thus becoming something of a longevity concern, but I'm not sure. It seems that most nominal 24V relays are sufficiently rated to handle 28V without incident.I'm not sure if it's a good idea to feed a 24V relay with 28VDC.
I understand. I remember when I was first trying to work out the bypass on this, I also had some confusion.Hi JMan, thanks for your answer!
I know i was trying to get the easy way, thanks for giving me hints that will -maybe- allow me to find the answer the other way!
-DPST yes, my mistake!
- when i had to use relays they were on a PCB and as you say, it's a monkey game. Here it's real deal and yes, i really don't get how those guys work....
- I was leaded by the drawing in the build guide, and, as they show very similar to the switch, i got a bit lost.... see attached picture, where the 2 poles are in the same position on the switch and on the relay, with the same labels In/Bypass also on both... apparently taking the input signal from the same Pole1/Pin2
-I have no infos on my relay case about the pins, just the small "notch" like on an IC
Will go, with the help of your remarks, investigate a lot more
Thank you!
Yes, that sounds about right. Okay, the data sheet doesn’t tell us much, but I’ve used these relays before and this is what I remember:Here is the datasheet, but i (think i) figured the pinout with a multimeter, measuring appx 3ohm between pins 4-6 and 11-13, 1k ohm between pins 1-16
