I am installing an electronic circuit (Flap Positionong System) which has a 

3 colour LED on it. I am puting this box inside the flap enclosure of my RV, 

thus hiden in a place out of sight.

Since I need, for some operations, to see the LED, I am thinking in puting 

another 3 colour LED somewhere in the panel. How should I connect the pannel 

LED to the circuit LED? Is it just a 3 wire connection? And both LED's would 

show the same?



TIA

Carlos

Run fiber optic cable; no extra wiring to do.

   Difficult to advise without having a schematic of your

   hardware. Do the installation instructions for this

   system offer any options for remote indication at all?



   What do these lights indicate?

The installation instructions don't provide any option for remote 

indication.



This LED indicates the mode of operation (number of blinks in Red color 

showing mode 1 to 6), programming mode (blinking yellow) and memory erased 

(blinking green).

The 3 color LED is soldered to the circuit by its 3 "legs".



What I'm asking is if I can connect a similar LED installed in my panel with 

a 3 wire cable to the 3 circuit LED contacts.

   Sounds good to me. You won't be able to wire in parallel

   with the existing LED . . . take it out and drop your three

   wires into the same holes where the LED used to reside.
