QUOTE (neil_s_wood @ 2 Nov 2008, 14:52) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Has anyone wired Eckon signals for DCC using a LS150 or any other accessory decoder for that matter.
How did you power them as they say only 12 v dc?
I was thinking of using a couple of these however if it's too hard to set them up functionaly I may stick with semaphore.
Neil, you cannot use an LS150 without a little help - it has no permanent on ability for colour light signals.
To get LED signals to stay lit with an LS150 you need to add MASTERswitch which will take care of the LEDs for you (you won't even need a resistor on the Eckon signals as MS is already fitted with them)
