How to connect Freewheeling Diode across Relay

[sujitpatil]

Hello,
I want to connect Freewheel Diode across Relay. Relay having total 5 connection NC,NO,Common,Device1,+12V.
so where i have to connect Relay. According to me it is connected in between +12V & Device1 in reverse way that is (Cathode - +12V) & (Anode-Device1).
Tell me the concept of Freewheel diode & Tell me the connection because i Am using this concept first time in my project.

Actually Freewheel Diode use for keeping electronic switch instead of inrush revers current made by relay coil's and preventing and clogging this current in the electronic circuit.
