Chuff wiring on an LGB Mikado

<< < (2/2)

gregeusa:
looks like you may have posted your question on LargeScaleCentral... and no responses...

Not a lot of LGB experts there...

Try reading this thread: https://largescalecentral.com/t/sound-for-a-lgb-mogul/71198/12?page=2

Dan Pierce is very experienced on LGB, try messaging him  (he posted on that thread)

some more info here: https://www.mylargescale.com/threads/lgb-digital-sound.23651/

Or, contact a dealer as I recommented... "All about trains" is an LGB dealer, as well as "Train Li"...

Thanks - I tracked Dan back to Trainli and called them, and the people there had a pinout for an earlier board, and between that and some mutual head-scratching I think we have it figured out.  Appreciate the pointer.

gregeusa:
Great... I am also on MyLargeScale.com most days.

Let us know how you get along, I could perhaps post your solution on my site... (help others in the future)...

Funny thing, I didn't know when I started that there's an auto-chuff feature and I don't actually need the chuff wire.  It works just fine.  I got the Mikado running on the bench without chuff wired in and the sound works just fine.

I'll drop you all my wiring notes when I'm done with the conversion just so the next person doesn't have to go through all the drama.

Hi Guys, yes I have blow up those hall effect sensors. I have a Mikado today being converted and just went with auto chuff.

I would like to test the LGB chuff sensor to hear how it works. Anybody that has the three wire directions please pass along.
