Correction to RS4.0 Pinout and RS1 hall effect sensor integration

Good Morning GGG

Do you have a similar page or pinouts for the Rail Sounds 5.0 boards?

The Acela fans would also like to know.

I found an error in the Lionel Pinout diagram for RS 4.0 Modular board.  The Hall effect sensor output pins 19 and 23 are reversed.  Pin 19 is +5VDC out and pin 23 is AC ground reference for the sensor.  The attached file is the orig lionel document and is incorrect.

Here's the two documents that have the info, and I have corrected them to reflect the changes George discovered.

Also for the early Lionel steam using tender Hall effect sensors for chuff with Railsounds 1 the color code is Green wire +5V, Yellow Ground, and Blue Trigger.

So, this is your reading on the correct wiring?

John yes but this is the early version for RS1 that had the wires soldered to sensor that insert into the truck frame.  Not the later version that used the connector and PCB.  So I am not sure how that version is color coded.  G
