Convert from pin header to screw terminal

I have a relay with pin control input and I would like to convert to screw terminals. There are 10 pins. I can't seem to search for the right piece. I'm sure it must exist. I'm guessing it's a green block with 10 female pin slots and 10 screw terminals. Please help. Thanks!

You could unsolder that header and solder in some screw terminals. Search for .1" spacing terminals (2.54 mm).

Also - have you tested that board with the BCS? Does it trigger with a high input?

My bet is that board will not work.

I agree.... it will not work.. I know cause I bought one in 2011
look at the pics to match it to the above:

Then look at the description:
"This relay module is 5V active low."
yes, the right ones cost a few bucks more and have screw terminals.... your time spent has to be worth something!

Input control signal voltage:
0V - 0.5Vdc, low level, relay not action.
0.5V - 2.5Vdc, unknown state.
2.5V - 24Vdc, high level, relay action.
