I have these DZ-100 turnout controllers.
Don't need them, because all my Gargraves turnouts are set up for manual operation.
Id like to test these-see if the work, but I don't have the controllers
Can I connect an MTH Turnout controller to test them?
if so, is it
red to red
green to green
yellow to black
And how do I get power to them?

Connect 12V to the red wire and ground the yellow wire to see if motor moves then ground the green wire
to check motor movement.

For the DZ-1000, the red wire goes to one side of the transformer, and then the yellow or green wires are connected to the other side to operate the motor. Alternately connecting them will move the arm and lever back and forth if they work. They operate on 12-20 VAC.
This is a "complete" wiring diagram for the DZ1000 with the associated pushbutton switch.
