    One follow up question: you indicate that voltage boosting can be removed (Settings -> Advanced, and set the ‘Boost Time’ to 0) if driving a relay. On the other hand, if I understand correctly, it is probably required to drive a valve. As far as I can tell, the setting is global (applies to all stations). If I am going to drive both valves on some stations and relays on others, I expect I should keep the Boost Time to a non-zero value, under the expectation that it is required to successfully drive valves, and it will not impact relays overly negatively?

    Hi Ray, this is very helpful on all accounts. Thanks a ton.

    Sometimes, with problems like these, rubber-duckying in an effective approach, and, as I was writing my question last night, I got to about the same conclusion as to how to wire the relay.

    The explanation as to how the stations are implemented is great though.
