⚡ Key Features

  • 1-Channel Dry Contact Relay — single relay output (NO/COM/NC); acts as a switch only — does not provide power to the connected device
  • Inching Mode (Momentary) — relay closes briefly (~0.7s) then auto-opens; perfect for pulsing gate motors, garage door triggers, and electric lock releases
  • Self-Locking Mode — relay stays on/off until toggled; for lights, pumps, 12V LED strips, and sustained on/off control
  • Tuya SmartLife Platform — works with the free Tuya Smart or SmartLife app on iOS and Android
  • WiFi Direct — No Hub — connects straight to your 2.4GHz WiFi network; no Zigbee hub, bridge, or gateway required
  • DC 5V Input — powered via USB 5V or any 5V DC supply
  • Voice Control — Amazon Alexa and Google Home compatible
  • Timers & Schedules — set up to 8 single/repeat/countdown timers per device via the app
  • Device Sharing — share control with family members via the Tuya SmartLife app
  • IFTTT Support — create advanced automations via the SmartLife IFTTT integration
⚠️ Dry Contact Relay — No Power Output!
The relay output is a dry contact (NO/COM/NC). The DC 5V input only powers the WiFi board — it does NOT pass through to the relay. Connect the relay contacts across your gate motor’s trigger terminals or device switch circuit.

🏠 What Can You Control?

🚗

Gate Motors

Wire NO + COM across your gate motor’s trigger terminals. Set inching mode. One tap in the app sends a brief pulse — opens or closes the gate from anywhere in the world.

🏠

Garage Doors

The inching pulse triggers the garage opener just like pressing the wall button. Power the ST-DC1 from a USB 5V phone charger near the opener.

🔒

Electric Locks

Trigger electric strike or magnetic locks. Inching mode releases briefly then re-locks. Set SmartLife scenes: doorbell press → unlock for 5 seconds.

💡

12V DC Devices

In self-locking mode, switch 12V LED strips, pumps, fans, or any low-voltage device on/off via the app or voice command.

🇿🇦 SA Gate Motor Tip: Most SA gate motors (CENTURION, ET, GEMINI) have trigger terminals. Power the ST-DC1 from a USB phone charger nearby, wire the relay across the TRIG terminals, set inching mode. Done — your gate is now smart. Open it from anywhere, share access with family via SmartLife, and set schedules.

🔄 ST-DC1 (Tuya) vs eWeLink SV — Which One?

Both are 1-channel WiFi inching relays. The ST-DC1 uses the Tuya SmartLife platform — ideal if you already use Tuya devices at home. The eWeLink SV uses the eWeLink/SONOFF platform and accepts DC 5–24V input. Choose based on which app ecosystem you prefer.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Does this need a Zigbee hub?
No — the ST-DC1 connects directly to your 2.4GHz WiFi network. No hub, bridge, or gateway required. Just the free Tuya Smart or SmartLife app.
What’s the difference between inching and self-locking?
Inching closes the relay briefly (~0.7s) then auto-opens — like pressing a button. Use this for gate motors and garage doors. Self-locking keeps the relay on until you toggle it off — use this for lights, pumps, or any device that needs sustained on/off control.
How do I power it?
The ST-DC1 runs on DC 5V — a standard USB phone charger works perfectly. Plug it into any USB wall adapter or powerbank near your gate motor or garage door opener.
Does the relay output provide power?
No — the relay is a dry contact switch. It opens and closes a circuit but does not provide voltage. Wire the relay contacts across the trigger terminals of the device you want to control.
What’s the difference between ST-DC1 (Tuya) and the eWeLink SV?
Both are 1-channel WiFi inching relays. The ST-DC1 uses the Tuya SmartLife app. The eWeLink SV uses the eWeLink app and accepts a wider voltage range (DC 5–24V). Choose based on your preferred app ecosystem.
