I asked this in my layout blog but thought I would post it here as well:
I have a question regarding the Tortoise switch machine and wiring 3 lead BiColor LEDs. Does anyone have a diagram of how to do this? (I do not have 2 lead BiPolar LEDs so I can't just wire them in) My thinking is that I connect the common anode to either pin 1 or 8 and then wire the 2 individual cathodes to pins 2 and 3 (or 6 & 7). and use pin 4 to power the frog of the turnout. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
John
