since most anything involving wiring always seems to be a challenge for me I am looking for some help hooking up a pair of Railking Crossing Flashers w/sound. I want to use the ITAD device with power from an auvillary powertblock. I have the two flashers across from a double track and my intent was to use one activation device ( that may be a problem..not sure ) I have the aux.power connected to the input side of the ITAD with rocker switch set to auxillary. The ITAD device is connected to track side. I have the RED wire from both signals and the RED wire from sound speaker all connected with crimp style connector to the the "common" connection on ITAD. The BLACK wires from both signals & sound speaker to "NO" on the ITAD. When I turn on power to my layout both flashers come on automatically and the sound bells chime away. All this is going on with no train running on either track. Can anyone suggest where I have gone wrong? Could it be that something is not right with the ITAD device connection to track? I would certainly appreciate any help as I have several such signals to include on other areas on the layout. Thanks Dan
