MTH 30-11038 Dwarf Signals

CurtisHOGR Forum Member

My question is a simple one but I can not find an answer. How much voltage is required to run MTH 30-11038 dwarf signals. I have several and have them hooked up to Atlas 21st Century switches, which took a long time to get them to work. Now I am ready to supply voltage to them and need to know is it AC or DC and how much voltage. Am using DCS on layout. Have 1 Z4000 and 2 Z1000's wired to TIU that goes to 3 AIU's. Have all Atlas switches thru AIU but power supplied by an old Tyco 18VDC / 20VAC transformer from the AC side. Can I use another old Tyco transformer to supply voltage to the dwarf signals or run them off the MTH Transformers accessory side? Am powering the TIU with a MTH Z500 (no accessory terminals). Have several old transformer's from my HO days.
