I bet there's lots of data online to show you how it's done. Atlas, at one time anyway, made a device: I think it was called "The Controller". It was a set of (3) slide switches: one each on the ends to control the loops, and the middle one was for power from the pack(?) Good luck... Mark in Oregon
