@gunrunnerjohn posted:Since my TT is out of reach, I have all command controls right now. I have the ingredients for a manual panel, a big rotary switch and lighted toggles, just haven't gotten to wiring that yet. That will be on the outside of the layout where operators will normally be running from. I strongly recommend having individual controls on each TT Whisker track, you don't want multiple engines waking up when not desired.
I did start with all command control from the remotes as I figured I could always add conventional after the fact if desired. Now that the track is down (at least all that's planned right now), I'm thinking on a few local control panels to make things easier. While it's nice to have command of everything, it's more convenient if you have a local control for some switches, quicker to access.
All my sidings have individual lighted switches so I can individually power them, and my four PH180 transformers that power the whole layout are on an RF remote so I can turn them on/off or reset them without actually physically accessing them.Thanks for the input
Hi John, Thanks for your input, it is always valued. I will take your strong recommendation on local control of the whisker tracks.
Interested in the PH180's are they built with RF remote capabilities? That seems like a great feature!
