Read Status of Linker Magnetic Switch with Java

Posted by: Alvin Jin , March 4, 2014

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Linker magnetic switch works as a regular mechanical switch:  it turns a circuit on or off depending on the position of the mechanical arm. The only difference is that the status of a magnetic switch is controlled by a presence of  a magnet, rather than a mechanical force.
