    Thanks for getting a message to me ITG.

    I am hoping to add the WM AC/DC ADAPTOR and a GAUGEMASTER MODEL GMC-HH SINGLE TRACK CONTROLLER. I understand the connections of the track controller, but don't understand where I need to place the adapter plate in a position to see the led indicator, outside my baseboard. I understand the installation of the DIN plugs [even though  I am rubbish with a soldering iron!] 

    What I really need is a plan or map, showing where every should be.

     

    I hope you can help'

     

    The models below are of my N-Gauge attempt, which I am hoping to electrify.

      Ah, I see. If I understand correctly, your query is more about physical placement rather than electrical connection? There is no screw hole in the adaptor plate, making it tricky to fix to a baseboard underside, or side edge if you need it visible. The 12v output connections on mine lead directly to a switch in a panel, so I don’t really need to see the LED indicator. That LED only goes off if I switch the whole mains off. If your query is about where to physically place the adaptor plate, I’m not sure it matters. You could use sticky tack (like blue tack but more permanent) to hold it in place.

      Are you clear about the connections from your controller to track? Connections will depend on track layout and type of points, and if you want sections.

      PS. Scenery looks good.

      Thanks again ITK. It seems that Gaugemaster don't consider the problems created for 72 year old folk like me!  I will take the plunge to try, thanks to your suggestions.

       

      Thanks for your kind notes about my scenery.
