Lionel O Gauge Remote Control Uncoupling Track

I use fastrack on my layout.  I have some Fastrack transition pieces to use O Gauge track to my Fastrack.  I would like to add a piece of O Gauge Lionel 6-65530 Remote Control track (See pic).  I will utilize this to operate some button control accessory items (Milk Cars, Log Loaders, etc).  I have test wired this through my OTC so I can dispense through my Legacy remotes.  All works way to well with track power with one exception.  To much power......  I would like to bring down the ejections to 12-14V.  What do I need to do to this piece of track so I can can control the voltage and use a accessory transformer?  I have not seen a Youtube video on the wiring procedure on what to do under the 6-65530 piece of track (snip? splice?) on how to control the voltage.

Can anyone direct me.  Help. 20180209_085848Thanks

Yes, Adam ND. The ASC2 will run up to eight uncoupling tracks; you will want to use the single-addressing mode. See the instructions for details.

Here are two ideas for Fastrack Operating Tracks with an ASC2 if anyone is interested.

First: Lionel's website has a document in the support section that is a wiring diagram for running a Fastrack Operating Track.

Second: There is a fantastic Youtube video by a guy named Sean. His channel is called "Sean's Trains, Cars, and Other Stuff." He has a video on the channel called "My O Gauge Layout-Episode 5-Part 2." In the video, Sean shows how to setup and use the ASC2. He has a short segment at the end of the video that shows how he modified a Fastrack OT to work with the ASC2.
