Reply to "Lionel O42 remote switch to a SC2"

Ok, that helps. 

Are you operating Legacy/TMCC engines with fixed track voltage?

if yes, place the track power jumper bar across both terminals. Power the switch from track power.

it should be straightforward with those modern switch motors.

I see that you have the SC-2 powered by the included wallpack. That's good.

Turn on everything and leave the SC-2 to switch wires disconnected.

Test the SC-2 by selecting SW and press 1 on the remote. Then, press out and listen for the relay. Then, press thru and listen for the relay.

Press SW and 2 and test that. 

Is the SC-2 operating properly?

Now, connect the common wire to the center of the SC-2 port. The screw opens the clamp downward and when you tighten the screw the clamp moves up. Hold the bare end of the wire to the top when tighten. Keep the stripped end to 1/4". This is the key - not poking too much into the port and knowing that it clamps moving to the top of the port.

Now connect that to the G terminal on the switch. 

next try one of the wires for out or thru and find the correct terminal on the switch. It looks like it has three dashes - - - then do the other for the OUT.

From the photo you had it looked like SW-2 was connected to the switch.

You'll get used to it. I found that once I was in SW mode, you can just press the switch number to quickly change between switches.

Any joy?
