Global Link 520 Relay stopped working

Tried out the relay function on my Global link 520. It was working good, I could hear the click and could measure the circuit open and closed as expected.

Then it seems it is not working any more, I try to open and close it using the VRM app, with blue tooth connection but there is no difference, no click and relay is open all the time. I read in another thread that the relay is rated for 3A. What happens if you exceed that? Is there any internal fuse or is it permanently broken?

if you exceed the 3 amp rating then you damage the relay and it will no longer work

We have tried to use Global Link 520 with solar with SmartSolar 100/20 for an Osprey nest camera.

We already have second unit because the first was not functioning: it did not cut the power.

Well we returned it and got a new one: same thing. Does not cut the power.

We would need this function because here in Finland the sun is not enough strong to keep the router and camera 24/7 on...
