High-Current Switching

Relay Node

The Relay Node switches the heavy stuff — maglocks, motors, pneumatics and mains-adjacent effects — with full isolation and fail-safe behavior built in.

What it's for

Some loads are not gentle, and some failures are not cosmetic. The Relay Node switches high-current and mains-adjacent loads through isolated channels, and it fails safe by default — because a lock failing in the wrong state is not an inconvenience, it is a safety issue. This is the device we are most careful about, and the one designed toward formal safety listing from day one.

Key features
  • 8 isolated high-current relay channels
  • Rated for mains-adjacent loads (e.g. 10 A @ 250 VAC)
  • Full galvanic isolation between control and load
  • Fails safe on power or communication loss
  • Hardware-enforced limits and conservative defaults
  • Engineered toward UL listing from day one

When the network drops

Mid-show, a cable is knocked loose and a Relay Node loses contact with the Core. It does not freeze in an arbitrary state — it goes to its safe state by design. The operator sees the fault on the console immediately, and because the device failed safe, the worst case is a paused effect, not a trapped guest.

Mains-powered devices must always be installed by a qualified person per the documentation and local code.
