Thank you
If you want forward and off it is possible to use just one IO. Spikes have the ability to be forward and reverse which requires 2 IO channels. The 3 wires on the PWM cable are all used. On signifies if output 1 is high or low and the other specifies if out put to is high low(the outputs being the two prongs on the relay opposite of the supply side. This way you can make it drive a motor forward or backwards.
