Hey all,

Can anyone help in identifying these terminals?

I haven’t come across these before, and it’s not clear how the retention mechanism works. I’ve already broken and lost the orange clip from the AUX terminal by playing around.

I need 0V and OSC to connect a smart relay to my garage door. I can’t afford to break another…

Thank you!

    That was my initial thought, but there’s little to no give in the orange button. If anything it only felt like a little play you get between loosely coupled mechanical pieces. That’s when I tried operating it like a clamp and broke one off.

      Have you tried inserting (solid core) installation wire? My guess is that it’s some sort of spring clamp, that is triggered by pushing in a wire. The orange things are only used when taking a wire out.
