Re: AR1 turntable problems
For clarity, I should have written "The radial labelled 11 and the main line connected to it all need to be wired the opposite of how its shown, or all the other turntable radials need to be reversed

Re: AR1 turntable problems
Lawrence, At 14 gauge except for short segments at the rails or reversers, your wiring is certainly heavy enough unless your runs are extremely long. But, on further research, I've concluded this is

Re: AR1 turntable problems
I have 14AWG BUSS & 6" 22AWG feeders going through BD20 detectors for every spoke & table. The TT is the REVERSE SECTION(INPUT) and every spoke is wired to the same buss(OUTPUT). The 2 spokes that

Re: AR1 turntable problems
I seems to me people are talking more than listening. There could be many problems, but some seem unlikely. I agree with Lawrence that it seems what he is doing "should" work, although it's not the

Re: AR1 turntable problems
Lawrence, I concur with John Heap's analysis.? You have a 'reversing loop' on track 10 between track switches Grn 5 and Blu 6 (I think I've read the numbers correctly).? This section needs a

Re: AR1 turntable problems
ALL the spokes are connected to the same power district including the TT rails. If the TT rails are the input and the output is the same power district why would it not work for any spoke regardless

Re: Added album ATLAS TT IN DCC HAVING AR1 ISSUES #photo-notice
All 6 of my Power Districts are from an EB6 with the POWER CAB as the ONLY source. Like I said before the other AR1 used for the level crossing is connected the same way, but to a different power

Re: AR1 turntable problems
Lawrence, From looking at your diagram track 10 potentially introduces a reverse loop. The turntable does not need an auto-reverser. Track 10 may need it. Gap both rails at the two spots labelled

Re: AR1 turntable problems
IMHO,I believe that it should have been stated, "IF ALL the spokes are wired in the same + to - respectively, THEN the split ring takes care of? NOT needing an AR". If you look at the drawing I put
Re: Added album ATLAS TT IN DCC HAVING AR1 ISSUES #photo-notice
Lawrence, what are using to provide two power districts from the Power Cab? Why? Does the AR1 get power from one of those, or directly from tje PowerCab? When you have a power interruption, what cuts

Re: AR1 turntable problems
Lawrence, If this is an N scale Atlas turntable, as shown on the Atlas website, the manual available on their website ( http://download.atlasrr.com/pdf/N%20Turntable.pdf) indicates that an

Re: AR1 turntable problems
I don't understand, the table should be separated into two halves, divided with a dead section about as wide as the bridge. That way the table doesn't need a reverser, it is always the correct

Re: AR1 turntable problems
Track plan in PHOTOS. The easiest solution for DCC is an auto-reverse unit, DCC power in to the autoreverser, the outputs connect to the turntable bridge power (and ONLY the bridge

Re: AR1 turntable problems
Lawrence, This is at least the 3rd group you've approached with this question. The Atlas turntable uses a 'split slip ring' and doesn't need an AR for a 'normal' installation. We may need a track

Re: AR1 turntable problems
Lawrence Step one is to exchange the AR1s. If the problem moves to the crossing, the AR1 is the problem. If it stays with the turntable suspect the wiring. Wouter
