OK.

What did you think about using the triac timing sig to keep the relay
closed ?

Also do you think we should opto between the Rabbit and the PIC
rather than between the PIC and Triac, I ask because if the zero volt
is not opto protected it could feed back to the rabbit in the event
of a failure. I note that the rabbit to ethernet does have some
protection.

Keith just found out your Core module was not posted yesterday, So I
have just gone and done it, will be with you on Tuesday, sorry

John
