Now I am having a problem when I run my intermountain FT set acrossed the mainline switches it buzzes or sparks as it crosses the switches and my turnout leds blink for a second. well I can't delete this post but I have solved the problem... I um had my programming track toggle switch in the ON position...I guess I should have named myself -> n-idiot sorry for the post! [ June 25, 2005, 02:41 AM: Message edited by: n-beginner ]
No problem dude. I often find that explaining a problem to someone else results in me solving the problem myself - just the way the mind works I spose. Anyway, if someone else has that problem sometime, your post might give them the solution .
That's why your programming track should be completed isolated from your mainline. Stay cool and run steam....
My programming track doesn't exist yet as that track hasn't been laid, (I am out of track and waiting for a shipment of some). The toggle switch is all wired up except for the two wires to the track and I will isolate the track when I get it laid.
