Hi I found a thread on the ESU ECoS forum which shows how to use a standard LokPilot decoder to control your turntable. In order to do this you need to use diodes and relays and some thing called a Kehrschleifen modul. Any ideas? My best guess is a reverse loop module?
I'm not quite sure what a relay is, is it available from electrical shops like diodes and the such? Is a freewheeling diode a type of diode or is this a quirk of the google translator? The types that were recommended were 1N4006 or 1N4007 which are regular diodes I think.
I quite fancy having a go at this as there is a good feature on the ECoS to control this. Any input or advice would be appreciated.
1st A Lokpiloten V2 and V3 or similar to the F1 function
2nd A relay (12V better 16V)
3rd A diode (free-wheeling diode)
4th A Kehrschleifen modul
5th The turntable
The original German was;
Was wird benötigt?
1. einen Lokpiloten V2 oder V3 oder ähnlich mit der F1 Funktion
2. ein Relais (12V besser 16V)
3. eine Diode (Freilaufdiode)
4. ein Kehrschleifenmodul
5. ganz wichtig die Drehscheibe
Die Schaltung habe ich im Anhang als PDF.
