Ground to 12V

Hi all,

I have a little experience with electronics but this is a little over my head.

What I am trying to do:
I have 2 connectors with 5 pins each. Connector 1 will have 1 active ground signal at a time. Connector 2 needs 12V depending on which ground signal is active.

How would I approach this? Any help is greatly appreciated!

Does that mean that one of the pins on P1 will be low at a time? And does that mean that one or all the pins on P2 will get 12 volts as a result?

What is the power requirement for the 12 volts that gets switched (12 volts at how much current)?

Perhaps our OP needs something like this:



I didn't show reverse-EMF diodes on the relay coils.

The ground for the connector on the left must be common with the ground for the 12v supply.
