I have this brand new unit with instructions. I want to use it with an insulated section of Lionel Fastrack. To test it, I connected the red and black wires from CW-80 accessory posts. Please look at attached pic for reference: I noticed that when I connected structure posts 2 & 3, the rescue mechanism would take action. If I connected 1 & 2 or 1 & 3, the lights would come on and the mechanism would not cycle. I would like to wire this so that the lighting is powered independently of the mechanism. I would like to control all of the layout wiring from one source and be able to dim the lights without affecting the power for the mechanism action.
What's the right way to wire this?
Thanks!
Garrett
