 |
|
Dear All.
I am trying to work out a wiring diagram for a retractable landing/taxi light using a small Firgelli 12v actuator and would welcome sensible suggestions.
I wish to use a 2-10 switch for the OFF-LANDING-TAXI control.
If OFF and TAXI are at either end of actuator range, then these can use its internal limit switches.
The issue is stopping and restarting the actuator at/from the intermediate LANDING position in either direction.
How is it best to wire up for this?
Should a micro-switch be used here and if so exactly how is the complete wiring system accomplished, diagrams if possible please?
I should add here that I have tried a linear actuator with internal position feedback and an actuator controller, utilising a variable resistor/potentiometer for the intermediate stop, without great success.
A second issue might be how to utilise the same switch to also control the illumination of the light in both LANDING and TAXI positions, but obviously for it to be off at OFF.
Any help and simple solutions for this would be very welcome.
I would appreciate any help and guidance with diagrams that could be shared.
