I have 2 of these ( https://www.jaycar.com.au/dpdt-illuminated-rocker-large-red/p/SK0982 ) DPDT rocker switches. I understand they are designed to switch between different items, however I am only wanting to use them as on off switches, one for my pump and one in conjunction with my PID for my herms element.
Looking at the 6 pins on the switch and labelling them as:
1 2
3 4
5 6
I understand 3 and 4 are active line in
and 1, 2, 5 and 6 are all items to toggle between ie 1 and 2 on whilst 5 and 6 off and vice versa.
As I am only wanting to switch 1 item on and off, can I simply run my active line in 3 and out 1 to the pump/element?
