Hi all
First up I'm a software guy and don't know much about circuits at all so if this is a stupid question I apologise. I'm trying to connect this external PIR http://www.gjd.co.uk/sites/default/files/pdf-files/opal_xl.pdf to a CCI input on this IO box http://www.lutron.com/TechnicalDocumentLibrary/qse-io.pdf
The PIR is fed from a 12V DC supply which I checked and is showing 13.5V DC (So within range) and I connected the "No1 Output" on the PIR to the CCI1 on the IO Box but nothing was detected. I have verified the CCIs on the IO box do work with a simple switch. I have a feeling I either need to involve the DC ground with the IO box somehow or maybe another component is needed to make this work but would really appreciate any advice.
