wiring sound module
Posted by Anonymous on Friday, October 17, 2003 9:31 AM
I have Radio Shack 20 sec. recordable sound module to use in an industry. I want to wire it with an on/off switch. Can someone help me wire around the momentary push button? Also, can it be made to run continuously instead of in 20 sec. bursts? thanks.[?]

I don't know anything about that device but wiring a switch accross the pushbutton is easy, just connect the switch to the pushbutton contacts. ITTC makes a number of small sound units designed for model railroading. These are intented to be used on the layout not in rolling stock.

I have used these with DCC to add whistle and bell sounds in an S gauge tender for a friend. They are about $20 each and come in a varity of sounds. They will run continusly if you keep the contact closed.
