Hi guys
I have recently fitted a mini windows 10 PC in my van with a touch capacitive screen built into the dashboard, I'm using it for job management, emails, satellite navigation and for steaming music.
The install is pretty much complete, however Iv had to put a temporary momentary push button in to put the PC to sleep and wake it back up for when I need it.
Ideally I want the PC to wake up when I turn on the ignition, then put the PC to sleep when I turn the ignition off. So I need a relay that will output a pulse (1-2 secs) for when the ignition goes live, then output a second 1-2 sec pulse when the ignition de-energises.
I'm struggling to find a relay that will do the job. Iv bought 2 different solid state relays online and they both only pulse when the input is energised, they both don't output anything when the input is de-energised.
Iv tried searching online for State change relays but can't find anything.
Am I using the correct term for the relay type??
Many thanks
