Light system
Posted by GS4 4-8-4 on Friday, March 24, 2023 5:03 PM

Hello my uncle gave me this system and said that it is missing a part for lights such as street light, house lights etc. Im not sure what the second part could be it would need to be wired thats all that I know. it has three -v dc outputs and three +v outputs I do not know how to insert a picture to show.

You don't mention a transformer but without a picture, it is pretty much hopeless.  There is a Sticky (permanent post) on how to do it.

Or an easier way,

  1. Go to Imgur.com or imgbb.com and register for a free account.
  2. I just registered for imgbb and it took 30 seconds to get a confirmation email to join.
  3. Upload a photo.
  4. With either app, when you click on the photo, there is a menu to copy a link to the picture
  5. With imgbb, choose copy BB code full,  with imgur there is only one BB code choice.  Click on that and it copies the link to your clipboard (computer memory)
  6. In the text of your post, don't use the photo icon, just hit control V simultaneously.

If you can't post a picture, can you at least tell us what light system you bought as there are quite a few of them out there. 

Help us help you! Big Smile
