CH 1-8 to SSR

Hi,

Thanks for such an awesome controller.  I picked up the EZ-8 just a couple weeks ago to run a prop for my haunt.  I like it so much I am now going to try and use it for a drag racing light tree for a Cub Scout event I have coming up.  Can I drive SSR's directly from the channel outputs?  Is anything "bad" going to happen?  The SSRs are 3-32VDC in and up to 3A on the AC side.  These are ZC only.  Not random crossing.

You can connect your SSR to the EZ-8; connect V+ to the + input on the SSR, the OUTx terminal to the - input.

If you had the RC-4, you can connect the 120vc on the RC-4 as shown in the EZ-8 docs and is shown at the top the EZ-8 treand (EZ-8 to RC-4 connection diagram).
