Rele 6 - PIO.6 was NC.

Rele 7 - PIO.7 was connected via about 5 m wire to a 2W LED light, and
was turned on /off independently once a day by a shell script using owwrite.
I noticed the light was on at unexpected times.

All switches on the HB card was set for rele operation.  No inputs were
connected.
