Fastrak switch and DCS AIU hookup help!

[lionelsuperotrack]

FasTrack certainly has its share of challenges that separate it from other types of track systems. With this in mind we have started a group specifically focused on FasTrack. Issues such as this are addressed. Why not take a look?

marty w,

The AIU has three terminals screws that you should hook up to, 1 & 2 control the turnout direction and N gets powered by the negative wire according to MTH instructions.  If I am correct the Fastrac switch should be wired like an old 022 switch if so the center terminal on the switch should go to N on the AIU and the 1 & 2 terminals get the two outside wires, don't worry about the hot wire as it should be pre-wired in the switch assembly.

I am using GarGraves track & switches and have to wire a little differently than for Lionel switches.

Can't figure it out! I had it working but switched was straight and straight was curved. At least I had it working! How should this be wired correctly?  I am using track power and using the ports for where the Lionel switch controller was hooked to! I have tried all combinations some only switch one way some don't switch at all! Am I overlooking something?

 

Hope help is on the way!  Thanks!
