RMweb Premium Edward Posted November 2, 2020 RMweb Premium Share Posted November 2, 2020 I plan to use the Alpha Ground signals to signal routes on a small goods yard. They will be directly wired to the Cobalts as per the diagram on their web site using terminals 4, 5 & 6. The cobalts themselves respond to Alpha Swiches D through the Alpha Encoder Unit on the mimic board. No difficulty with the 2 way points but the 3 ways are a problem. I can't work out how to wire up the signals. Each 3 way point obviously gives 3 different routes by moving 2 point motors. On the board it's easy to pick the 3 options with a colour code. Any ideas on a circuit that works? If no simple solution, I suspect I will have to revert to hand operated ponts with just one ground signal to enter the goods arrival line. .

RMweb Gold ITG Posted November 2, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 2, 2020 Always worth a call to DCC Concepts. I’ve always found them very helpful, not just with their own products, but also how they interact with other brands. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCCconcepts Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Hi Edward. Are you wanting to show route indication on a mimic panel for a 3 way point ?. If this is correct we can give you a diagram on how to do this using the single colour leds. We are not at this time able to do it using the red/green leds due to the way the mimic board outputs work. Please send an Email to: Salesuk@dccconcepts.com. And we can forward the information. Just a reminder this will only work with the single colour Leds connected to the Mimic board, and uses two output addresses the same as the point motors. Best Regards.
