The Mardec software downloaded onto the Arduino makes controlling servos a breeze. https://www.arcomora.com/mardec/ You don't need to use the...
Ok, I like an easy life and I've tried with Arduinos and partially succeeded but forgotten everything I taught myself. But then I discovered the...
My mistake, CSX Robert is right, inputs can be either toggles or pushbuttons. It's a while since I've looked at the manual:cautious:
Push button
Yes, you could definitely use a SPDT switch to feed the frog. It would certainly make it simpler to set up the DCCNext. I avoided it as this was...
I probably said I generally use it in conjunction with 8 servos plus 8 relays for frog polarity. If you're using it in DC mode you could hitch up...
The Arduino and all of the components are housed in the white plastic case as shown here on the website picture....
Not to control servos. The servos connect directly into the three-pin plugs on the board. One does need a 5vdc input. If one wants to change...
No, scripts aren't needed. You need to be able to load software to your pc and learn to use it. You then connect the DCCNext to your pc with a...
It's not only DCC. You can wire one DCCNext so that it controls 8 servos by 8 individual push-button switches. Each of the push-button switches...
Hi, I've mentioned this European product before but it's relevant so I'll do so again. https://www.arcomora.com/dccnext/ The DCCNext will...
There is an option you haven't mentioned which is DCCNext. These are Arduino based decoders that are programmable on your pc through a series of...
I'm sorry but I don't have the knowledge to answer your question, but: In Rudy's videos he refers to the ArCoMoRa software. The person that...
Beautiful work. It certainly has "the feel". Ted
I must admit to being impressed with both the simplicity and price. I might well try them. Thanks for pointing them out. Cheers, Ted
Hi George, With the Wagos you do have to strip the insulation. With the Button Gel Filled Phone Splices you don't. Cheers, Ted
I have tended to get the lowest priced ones from China off the auction site and I've never had a problem using 7/0.2 stranded wire. However,...
Yeah, I double up wires and even triple them. I can honestly say Wagos have made a huge difference to the way we wire our club modules. You'll...
Hot glue's fine. I've used both. Cheers, Ted
Our oNeTrak modules are about 4 foot long. Under the baseboard about halfway along I glue two Wago 5 port connectors, one for the each of the...
