This is the latest Slow Motion Switch Machine using digital control to the motor. It is very small and measures only 31mm (1.25in). It comes with 3 small screws for easy fitting to the underside of your layout. The SLOW MOTION SWITCH MACHINE costs $8.50 usd and comes with 2 metre of 3-core lead. You also need a control module containing 2 switches and microcontroller and power supply. The CONTROL MODULE costs $22.00 usd and will operate one or two SLOW MOTION SWITCH MACHINES. Shipping $7.50 usd for any number of Slow Motion Switch Machines. The module is fully assembled but the two switches are in a separate bag (with fine solder 3 screws and extension lead) as they are too tall to be shipped as a small packet from Australia. You need to fit the two switches to the small front-panel and use the nuts to get the height so the LEDs fit through the holes. The LEDs show the position of the point. The switch MUST be fitted so the letters "C" "NO" and "NC" can be seen as per the image above. They will not work if fitted the wrong way around. These are special switches - push switches - and not toggle switches. Push the legs through the holes of the printed circuit board and before you solder the pins, try the operation of the module. When you know it operates correctly, solder the pins with the fine solder provided. You can also get a version of SLOW MOTION SWITCH MACHINE for the topside of your layout - ask for details when ordering. SLOW MOTION SWITCH MACHINE is designed by Colin Mitchell of TALKINGELECTRONICS.com and you can contact the Talking Electronics with your requirements.
MOUNTING The board is mounted on your control panel through a small rectangular hole with 2 mounting screws and the larger board sits behind the panel. Press the left push-button and the SLOW MOTION SWITCH MACHINE moves the point to the Main line. Push the switch again and the electronics makes the SLOW MOTION SWITCH MACHINE move the point to the Siding. The second push-switch operates the other SLOW MOTION SWITCH MACHINE in the same way.
