Is this the correct way to utilise function 118 (Power Hold) in M800:

I don't think it will work the way you have it wired, the dig4 is ign switch input? Aux8 would be power hold with high side driver? If so the power hold putting B+ on the relay terminal will keep the ign switch dig4 from seeing 0v (off).
DPST ign switch with one pole to dig4 and one pole to the relay would isolate them and let it work.

Thank you Scott for the reply!
And, you're absolute right!
But if I would add a diode (between AUX8 & DIG4) it should work, right?

My brain may be coffee deficient this AM, but I don't see a diode solving the issue.
