AC/DC Sensor: line or DC presence, made simple
The AC/DC Sensor is a two‑terminal, optically‑isolated detector that reports a logic HIGH to your Game Changer board when voltage is present across its input. It is non‑polarized (works with AC or DC) and shares the same snap‑in form as other SIMO.io modules.
TL;DR
- Two terminals, non‑polarized: detects AC or DC presence.
- Normal mode (DIP OFF, default): 100–250 V AC/DC, 50/60 Hz; absolute max 300 V.
- Low‑voltage mode (DIP ON): 10–120 V AC/DC; absolute max 120 V.
- Optically isolated from the Game Changer input.
- Signal to board: asserts logic HIGH when input is within the selected mode’s range.
- Form factor: identical to other SIMO.io snap‑in modules for The Game Changer.
- 50/60 Hz AC supported in both modes.
What it does
- Presence detection: senses whether AC or DC voltage is present and reports a HIGH to the board.
- Galvanic isolation: optical isolation keeps the Game Changer side protected from the sensed circuit.
- Non‑polarized input: connect either conductor to either terminal; no polarity for DC, no line/neutral orientation required for AC.
- Wire‑first posture: clean panel‑side wiring; logic runs locally on your SIMO.io hub.
Modes and DIP switch
Normal mode — DIP OFF (default)
- Detects 100–250 V AC or DC (50/60 Hz for AC).
- Use this for mains presence sensing within the rated range.
- Absolute maximum input: 300 V (do not exceed).
Low‑voltage mode — DIP ON
- Detects 10–120 V AC or DC (50/60 Hz for AC).
- For SELV/control circuits only. Never connect mains in this mode.
- Absolute maximum input: 120 V (exceeding this will destroy the module).
Wiring basics
- Two terminals, non‑polarized: connect the two conductors of the circuit you wish to sense—either way round.
- Select the correct mode first (DIP OFF for 100–250 V; DIP ON for 10–120 V) before energizing the circuit.
- Isolation: the sensed circuit is isolated from the Game Changer input via an optocoupler.
- Safety: for mains wiring, follow local electrical code and use qualified personnel.

FAQs
Will it detect DC without polarity?
Yes. The input is non‑polarized—either conductor can go to either terminal.
Can I sense mains and low voltage with the same unit?
Yes—select the correct mode with the DIP switch before energizing. Never apply more than 120 V when the DIP is ON (low‑voltage mode).
Does it work on 50 Hz and 60 Hz?
Yes. Both modes support 50/60 Hz AC.
Change the module, not your weekend
Every SIMO.io PCIe‑style module is field‑replaceable. Your logic is bound to the port—not to throwaway device IDs—so if a module ever fails or you’re upgrading, pull it off the rail, snap in the replacement, and you’re done. The Game Changer board provides the same signals over that PCIe port instantly, so scenes, schedules, and security rules stay intact. No re‑pairing. No reprogramming. No hunting through automations. Keep a small set of spares and restore full function in minutes. That’s professional serviceability by design.
SIMO.io — Smart Home Supremacy. Every module serves with quiet precision—ruled locally by The Game Changer board, commanded by your SIMO.io hub (local or virtual)—for protective, reliable, inevitable control.
