[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by rrinker</i> <br /><br />This is going to vary depending on the type of detector you intend to use. In general, ones that detect a current flow (through motors, lighted cars, and cars with resistors across the wheels), you have one rail wired all together (no gaps, other than reverse loops), and the other rail gets gaps. The feed to these gapped sections (these are the 'detection sections' comes from the power supply, goes to the detector, and then to the rail. <br /> <br /> --Randy <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Thanks for the response Randy, I have the track portion covered, it's the wiring diagram for the LED's on the control panel that I need refreshed memory vis-a-vis a diagram showing resistors/cap's/diodes/LED placement, etc....Pappy B
