4) Install the Remote Link Switch
NOTE: There is a Link Switch on the receiver. If the Link Switch on the receiver
is accessible from outside the locomotive you may wish to skip this step
Locate a place to install the supplied Remote Link Switch where it will be
accessible from the outside of the locomotive, yet obscured from view. Under
a removable hatch or through the bottom of the locomotive or tender are
convenient locations, in most cases. The Remote Link Switch must not be
mounted on a metal or conductive surface since this may cause a short circuit.
A typical installation in the Aristo-Craft SD45 is
shown below.
Drill a 5/16”(8MM) diameter hole in the selected
location. Install the Remote Link Switch through the hole
from inside and secure it with hot melt glue or silicone
adhesive.
5) Attach the remote link switch connector on the Remote Link Switch to the three
pin header on the receiver as shown on the following page.
