- Connect the 5-pin terminals according to the wiring diagram below.
5 Pin Push Button Switch Wiring Diagram
A 5-PIN switch offers maximum flexibility, featuring C (Common), NO (Normally Open), NC (Normally Closed), and two dedicated LED pins (+ / -). This allows for four distinct control modes.
1. Normal OFF, Sync LED (NO Connection)
Logic: Both the device and the LED are OFF by default. Pressing the button turns ON the device and the LED simultaneously.
- Application: Standard start switches where the light indicates the system is running.
- State: Static (LED Out, Device Off) → Pressed (LED On, Device On).
2. Normal ON, Sync LED (NC Connection)
Logic: Both the device and the LED are ON by default. Pressing the button turns OFF both the device and the LED.
- Application: Stop buttons or emergency cut-off switches.
- State: Static (LED On, Device On) → Pressed (LED Out, Device Stop).
3. Normal OFF, Constant LED (NO Connection)
Logic: The LED stays ON constantly as a backlight. The device only turns ON when the button is pressed.
- Application: Power switches in dark environments or access control buttons.
- State: Static (LED On, Device Off) → Pressed (LED On, Device On).
4. Normal ON, Constant LED (NC Connection)
Logic: The LED stays ON constantly. The device is ON by default and turns OFF when the button is pressed.
- Application: Monitoring systems or security alarms that require constant power indication.
- State: Static (LED On, Device On) → Pressed (LED On, Device Stop).
| Mode | LED Behavior | Device (Idle) |
|---|---|---|
| NO Sync | Lights up when pressed | OFF |
| NC Sync | Turns off when pressed | ON |
| Constant | Always ON (Backlight) | User Choice |
Industry Knowledge
What is a waterproof 12 volt push button switch?
A waterproof 12 volt push button switch is an electromechanical component used to control electrical circuits. In industrial settings, it serves as a human-machine interface (HMI), allowing operators to safely trigger signals or power in environments exposed to moisture, dust, or impact. Its IP65 rating ensures that internal components remain dry, even during wash-down procedures.
Momentary vs. Latching: What is the Difference?
| Function | Definition | Application Example |
|---|---|---|
| Momentary | The switch remains "ON" only while being pressed. Returns to original position when released. | Horn, Doorbell, Computer Reset. |
| Latching | Press to turn "ON" and it stays locked. Press again to release and turn "OFF". | Light switch, Power ON/OFF. |
