Thanks for the response. I’ll try and articulate the confusion. It relates only to ports 1-3 of the 6010. I am of course a novice to model railway electronics. My background is, or was some time ago, electronics. So assumptions and underlying queries are. Assumption 1. Is that the three wires on a points solenoid are a common and two live wires and that a single (?) pulse of suitable voltage and duration on either of the two live wires will pull the solenoid one way or another. That sounds simple. Assumption 2. Is that each capacitor referenced in the above, charges and is then discharged into one or other of the two live wires to the points solenoid with a suitable semiconductor. If this is true so far, so good. So question 1. Is Why is the waveform shown in the above showing more than 1 pulse? The second question, or confusion, is around commoning outputs. I assume that the suggestion is that the capacitors are all commoned and then that when a pulse is required there is more charge available, although not more voltage. Power being proportional to the square of the voltage as discussed. It might mean that you couldn’t switch multiple points simultaneously but it might give you the max voltage for longer on one. I guess as you say it’s a compromise. So thanks for answering. Much appreciated. If there was a circuit diagram I could work this out for myself but as you say, it’s understandably proprietary. And of course a compromise based on providing flexibility of usage is also understandable. I’ll stop worrying about this and try it, maybe with some piggy back 2200 microfarad capacitors on each circuit if I have problems. Still like to see the circuit diagram of course. Rgds
