Percybigun Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 I have 2 separate track loops, not connected by points.the outer loop is permanent dcc, the inner loop is dc, but i want the inner loop to be switchable between dcc and dc (i wont use a switch, i've physically just swap the wires over). This is because i have much more dc loco's than dcc loco'sdo i just attach an extra pair of power wires into the track outputs on e-link, or do i need an extra e-link to do this?

Bigskybirds Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 Just wire to your existing elink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrissaf Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 Just for completeness of information. Even if you were to be able to obtain a second spare eLink you wouldn't be able to connect it to your RailMaster PC as a track (loco) controlling controller. The Controller B option in RailMaster will only route DCC Accessory Packets to Controller B. ALL DCC Loco control packets are ONLY routed to Controller A. Therefore, connecting a second 'Controller B' to a second completely isolated track oval will not give you ANY loco control whatsoever..You will have to do as HFM suggests, make two track connections to your existing eLink Track A&B output.

2e0dtoeric Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 And DISCONNECT the controller you are not using! You cannot have a dc and a dcc controller connected to the same track at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
