there are jumpers and a switch. anyone know how to add a resistor to set the current limit or what the jumpers are for ?

There are several flavors of this board out there so I may be incorrect. The switch simply gates the supply to and from the VCC regulator. The jumpers I believe go to the enable signals for each motor. As for the current limit, I believe you will have to limit the motor supply input current in some way. You can find the datasheet for the IC here: https://www.sparkfun.com/datasheets/Components/General/L298N.pdf

I doubt if many/any of us have tripped the breaker, so you might not get a solid answer. I've been using two of these for 18 months or so, and have never pushed them that far (nor would I recommend you try to run >15 amps). But it's a circuit breaker, not a fuse, so you should just be able to press the reset button (after reducing the load, obviously!) Hopefully you'll get someone to answer who's actually tripped the breaker, but in absence of that, I wouldn't be concerned about it; that's how a circuit breaker works.

I put in a 40 amp breaker for this unit, but have th jumpers set to 5000 watts and have never needed to run it on high in my 3 car insulated garage, so a 30 amp breaker would have worked.

Yes its a very simple set up. Like I said you might need to add some more wire for the set up. Has fuse link to for positive do not forget that.

You have to run two additional wires from the switch to behind the gauge cluster. Look it up on YouTube, or google it. I did it over a year ago, and it works fine.

There is nothing to set up. It is 4 separate relays on one board. Each has a dry set of contacts and a trigger input. A single power input supplies the 4 relays. I tried it and it worked with out any problems. However, the input tabs break very easily and I would not buy it again.

Change the jumper on the control board from 24vac to 12vac. The default value is 24vac.

Google the sensor and display to find the instructions. I seem to recall that there's a jumper on the circuit board that you need to set for one or two temp sensors. So I'd take a look at the docs before I gave up.

It displays the current that is actually flowing. I didn't see a way to have it tell you what you are setting the limit to. So I had to connect a load and then adjust it to see where it was set.

I remember the instructions telling when to use the jumper and where to put it, but I can't remember the details. Check your instructions, if it is still unclear, let me know and I will look to see if I still have the instructions.

Are you asking how much current this meter requires to work? If so I wouldnt imagine very much at all though I dont have a definite number. Putting a resistor in series with the meter would affect the voltage reading. What exactly are you trying to do?

Requires individual wiring to power source. I made and used jumpers to jump from one to the next.

I guess the problem must be with the dipswitch. That is the only configuration problem that might prevent it from displaying the video. Try different combinations of the two switches because only one works in my case. The cable connections are pretty straightforward and do not leave space for error, I think.

I would not recommend doing that because of the current load. The switch has a 10 amp (PEAK) rating. I would not recommend using it for more than 5 amperes of continuous current, more than that for any lengthy duration would likely increase risk for breakdown and potential fire. If you are using it for very low power devices, you could do that, but I would check the current rating of everything you daisy-chain from it very carefully before doing that.

When you put the switches in, only one will switch the load (a responder). The other will become a controller. The motion sensor would also a become a controller of that switch.

It does not have a high and low setting on the controls, mine doesn't cycle that much and it seems to go a degree or two beyond what it is set at before it comes on. with that said I seem to recall the manual mentioning a jumper that could be used to change the amount of leeway before it came on and off. But I cannot say for sure.

Assume you mean 240 into the single post. Schematics on pg's 17 thru 21 show only one hot leg switched. You shouldn't be using jumpers in the control unit. The switched input (terminal 3,5 or 7) leg should come from half a 240V circuit breaker. The unswitched 240V load leg should return to the other half of the 240V circuit breaker
