SOLVED: Global Link 520 relay not working

We have tried to use Global Link 520 with solar (+batteries and 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...and the router/camera needs to be booted once a while.

PROBLEM SOLVED:

This made Global Link to function.

VRM has the preset that BlueTooth is enabled.

I was using both Bluetooth and VRM when testing.

When giving the command by BlueTooth the VRM does not cut the streaM, even if it says it is cut.

Solution: I gave the command via VRM to disable Bluetooth.

When the BlueTooth was disabled, I gave a new command to open via VRM and now it is working fine.

Perhaps the Global manual should say:

DO NOT USE BLUETOOTH AND VRM simultaneusly!
