Hi
I run a local automation device with various sets of input from a remote device (connected via cable only)
The remote device operates on 12V DC. So the output will be +12V DC and also I am carrying and GND from there to a remote device. (distance may be 50 or 200m varies)
In the local device, I need to connect that input from the remote device to an ESP32.
I am now using several relays to pick up that input and convert it to input for ESP32 5V DC.
Even if the remote signal is having a voltage drop, I will use a 9 V or 5V DC to pick up that signal.
Now, my question is, is there any method to give that signal to my ESP32 without using relays?
Also, my consideration is the isolation of the power supply. I don't want to mix up local and remote GND's
thank you
