Dear Railway Modeller,
Thank you for deciding to purchase the TURN-
CONTROL turntable controller
FLEISCHMANN. The controller can be used for
any of the FLEISCHMANN turntables (as well as
Märklin* 7286) either in DC powered or digital
systems and even in 3-rail AC layouts, so that you
can pre-select your desired turntable exit tracks
and automatically rotate the turntable to them.
The TURN-CONTROL can even be operated by
DCC equipment or via LocoNet connections.
You won't need to make any alterations either to
the layout or directly to the turntable itself.
In this operational manual, we will describe, step
by step, all you need to know about how to install
and how to use, (i.e. connection to additional
turntables) the TURN-CONTROL controller on
your layout.
The FLEISCHMANN-Team wish you many hours
of enjoyment with your new controller.
