CullingworthGNR Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Hello, I have a Gaugemaster P controller (single track with inertia). Is it possible to run a HH controller from the 16vAC output on the back of this unit to control a second track? Thanks for your time. Tom Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
37114 Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Assuming its similar to the 100m then the answer is "Yes" as I have done it. If you buy a Gaugemaster HH unit and their din plug then the HH unit has a wiring diagram for the din plug. You then connect the +/- ive terminals marked track 2 on the back of the P to your track.

CullingworthGNR Posted April 4, 2011 Author Share Posted April 4, 2011 There's no DIN plug, there's just track 1, DC outputs, AC outputs, and a spare. Thanks for your reply, sorry I didn't explain better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CullingworthGNR Posted April 6, 2011 Author Share Posted April 6, 2011 Hello guys I got a reply from Gaugemaster and it seems you can do this, as long as the HH is of recent manufacture (3-5 years old). Thanks Tom Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
66C Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Hi Tom If you check the specifications for this controller on the Gaugemaster website, you will find that it is not suitable for a second controller when common return wiring is used. In other words you will have to be careful that there is no link between the outputs of each controller. Have a look at: http://www.gaugemaster.com/instructions/p.pdf Regards Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CullingworthGNR Posted April 6, 2011 Author Share Posted April 6, 2011 Thanks Bill, I've seen that several times and not been sure what 'common return' means. I'll make sure the circuits are always kept separate. Thanks again Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
