NCE help needed for MK8 and more
Posted by hawkes HO Layout on Friday, December 9, 2016 6:16 PM

I'm about to start my switch panel and need help on the wiring. I want my control panel to have one push button to activate the tortoise and also light up the right color of the LED. The panel will have 16 tortoises, so I want 16 push buttons and 32 LED's

1) I was under the impression that I could use only one push button per tortoise, is this doable and if so how? Because the button board says 2 push buttons per tortoises

2) How do I connect the LED to the hardware? If someone could take this drawing and draw what needs to be connected, it would be greatly appreciated

Because you posted after closing time on a Friday, and our site moderators work regular business hours.

All new members have their first few posts moderated to protect the site from spam.
