Super Chuffer questions

Instructions are hard to understand?  Say it isn't so!

• Wire track center roller to pin 1.
• Wire frame ground to pin 2.
• Wire the chuff signal from the chuff switch to pin 5, leave the existing connections, just wire it in parallel.
• Wire the negative lead of the smoke motor to pin 6
• wire the positive lead of the smoke motor to pin 9.

Make no connections to any other pins on the Super-Chuffer.  I typically encase it in heatshrink to insure no short circuits after it's all wired up.

Note that there are two wires going to the chuff switch.  One is ground, the other is the actual chuff signal to the R2LC.  You obviously want the one that is the chuff signal.  Using an ohmmeter, determine which signal is always ground rotating the wheels and which signal is ground only when the switch is closed.

 Note that there's an email address on the Super-Chuffer instructions to ask questions, that's the way to get my attention the quickest.

Thank you John, that was much easier to understand than the instructions! With the instructions, it was unclear (at least to me) if could use the cherry switch or had to install a magnet/ reed switch set-up.

Glad to help Chuck, it's my "personalized" product support.

The "cherry switch" and the "Magnet/reed switch" do exactly the same thing, periodically pull the chuff signal to frame ground.  Both of those switches are wired in the same way electrically, and perform the same function.  My Chuff-Generator is just a fancy way to do the chuff switch and also of course, add 4-chuffs/rev and optional ground lights.
