/* BASIC SSR TIMER
 ***************************************************
 * WIRING:
 * 5v pin on the Arduino to DC+ on the SSR board
 * GND pin on the Arduino to DC- on the SSR board
 * Pin 7 on the Arduino to CH on the SSR board
 ***************************************************
 * FUNCTION:
 * The Arduino LED (connected to pin 13)will flash briefly 
 * to indicate the relay is on, at the same time the SSR
 * will turn ON. 
 * 
 * After aproximatley 1 sec the SSR will turn OFF
 * for about 1 sec then the cycle will repeat.
 * 
 * If you open the Serial Port at 9600 Baud:
 * You will see a text confirmation of when the relay is ON / OFF
 * You will also see the TX Led flash briefly when the serial lines are sent.
