Hi folks,
I'm building an analog layout. I'm using the 7211 control box for the first time but I can't get it to do anything. I've wired it according to this diagram. The wiring makes sense and when I join the two blue wires together they reform a circuit but when I connect them to the 7211 nothing happens.
Inside the control box there seems to be something missing (see photo) as there doesn't seem to be anything there to complete the circuit.Confused
Any suggestions please?

Hi,

I'm a little confused about what you're using 7211 to achieve. Are you trying to power on/off a section (block) of track?

Hi Brandon,
Thanks for getting back to me. Yes, I'm setting up a block of track. I've isolated the centre stud and then wired it according to the diagram. When I touch the wires together they reform the circuit so the wiring works but not through the 7211. I went to Jaycar and bought some basic on/off switches so I may use those instead.
John
