    The DCssr would require a controller (Ren64, Ren24LV, ect.) and that controller can be in line with the ss16 (before or after).

    The REN16SS or the REN16 are integrated controllers (aka they have a controller and SSR all on one board). While this makes it a simple board to deploy, it lock you into AC 110 V or something like that.

    The DCSSR and SSRez were designed to work with any controller that did not have integrated SSRs. Examples of this are the GRINCH, REN64 and many others.

    It was all about choice. individual SSRs (such as the DCSSR and the AC SSRez) let you mix and match on the same controller.

    Hope that helps
    I understand what you are saying. for some reason I did not even think about the dcssr needing a controller to tell it what to do. I do appreciate the advice! Now I can get on the right track and make some progress with my project.

    thanks
