I have 8 fastrack switches currently remotely switched with the lionel switches that have been modified with longer cables. I also wired all the switches with constant power that is delivered from an MTH Power Block Z1000 aux port out. See the switch plan below. This transformer also controls the entire track system with one terminal track near switch 2. Only four of the switches work (switch numbers 3, 1, 2 and 4) and I can change these switches with the their remotes. However, the other switches (5, 6, 7, and 8) do not work at all. All these switches are Lionel Fastrack Remote/Command Switches. All these switches provide access to the four separate tracks seen in the picture that traverse the entire layout.
I have double checked the wiring and even tried a separate transformer (Lionel CW80). The the results are the same. All these switches have been wired with separate power wires that feed from a junction which is fed by one wire from the transformer. I am at a loss as to how to solve this problem. Any suggestions appreciated!
Thanks,
Jim
