 |
|
Need some help from the experts. I have been looking for a DPDT switch off-on-on non progressive. It seems like such an animal does not exist. The switch will be used for wigwag/ landing lights. I am considering using the wig/wag module sold by Crazed Pilot. Possibly there is another switch that with creative wiring will give off-on-on. If so please advise and include the creative wiring required. I could go with a on-off-on and have what I need but I would like to keep all off functions down which is why I am searching for the requested switch,
Thanks

Would Mike bullocks idea suit you better, not needing the 'crazed pilot' wig wag

This is a configuration that I used. It minimizes the panel space requirements.

Hi Paul,
You can use a 2-10 (on-on-on) switch like what Bob shows on his Z-16 drawing as a master switch. You could wire it like Bob shows in Figure 11-17 on page 11-19 of the AeroElectric Connection. That's what I did for my landing light to have the down position "off", center "landing", & up "wig-wag". You could configure whatever order you like.

Thanks everyone for the feedback. It seems like all the switches mentioned are progressive. Am I interpreting things correctly in that power feed to the wigwag module will of course cause the lights to wigwag. When power is applied directly to the lights without removing the power from the wigwag module then the lights go on steady with no harm done to the wigwag module? I have the schematic from Aeroelectric for the wigwag/ landing using one switch 2-10. Can someone explain the need for the bridge rectifier. Also is there a source somewhere for the individual switch schematics from Carling.

Paul,
You asked about the bridge rectifier. Can you post the schematic or a link to it?
For Carling schematics, try a Google search for "carling switch pinout".

Here is a link to the Aeroelectric article. The schematic is page 3, single source, single switch.

Let me try that again. Need to make the slight extra effort to add the link.http://www.aeroelectric.com/articles/WigWag/WigWag.pdf

OK, I looked at the schematic. The reason for the bridge diode is to isolate flasher terminals 2 and 3. Without the diodes, terminals 2 and 3 would be connected together and the lights would never wig-wag. They would both be on at the same time.

Yes: I'm using this (page 3), now how do we convert this when I fit LEDs instead

According to the last page of the pdf (link provided above by Paul), the flasher will work with LEDs if a 75 ohm, 5 watt resistor is connected in parallel with each LED light.

Thanks Joe
All I had to do was to mentally remove the bridge diode and the need becomes obvious. I now believe I have enough information to proceed.
