Hi Ken,
I'm running the signals as [to quote the NCE Light-it
documentation], "Using the Light-it as an NRMA conforming signal
decoder". Thus they are programmed [addressed] under 'signal
address programmimg' [as per NCE instructions].
You're correct. I could use an NCE switch-it [or Switch 8] to do
the job. And it does require two accessory addresses for a 3
aspect signal.?
Some time ago I did some testing with the now retired TAM Valley
LEDcoder. It worked okay, but then NCE finally brought out their
'Light-it' decoders that would operate on the alternative set of
signal addresses. [Should be much more digitally efficient.]

Nimble,

One thing I should have asked was which
configuration did you have the Light-It using? My memory seems
to say that using it via the signal aspect method is the more
reliable way to use it. That means one appearance is one
aspect using a single command per board. I recall that when
configured as an accessory decoder, and two commands to the
same board go out back to back, it tends to miss the second
command.

Others may have a better memory of possible
solutions.
