HO / Re: HO Turn-Out electrical values
February 08, 2023, 03:19:28 PM
Thanks guys! This info points be in the right direction!  I've found some examples of switch machine circuits.  I have found there are a couple of variations depending on the switch type:  Single-coil, Twin-coil with common connected coils, Twin-coils without common.  Judging by the 3 connection contacts on the EZ-Track turnouts, I presume that they are Twin-coil.  Only question is do they have common connected coils.  Anyone know for sure?  Here's an example of the circuit schematics I found for twin-coil.

HO / HO Turn-Out electrical values
February 05, 2023, 12:50:26 PM
Greetings,

I was just wondering if anyone can tell me the electrical values for the HO EZ-Track turn-outs.  I am building a very specifically controlled diorama and I am designing my own control system.  I need to know the voltage and milliamps values are to trigger the turnouts.  I don't see that info in the manuals. 

Thanks!
