The DSD lighting outputs may be used with 12-16 volt incandescent lamps,
LEDs or 1.5-volt micro-bulbs. For more on lighting outputs, see pages 25
and 26.
Other Considerations
Finally, you will need to decide whether or not to hardwire the electrical
connections or use a plug-able connector. A connector will allow you to easily
separate the components for storage, painting and service easier but also
opens the possibility of accidentally damaging the decoder by reversing
the connector during reassembly. Hardwiring the decoder will prevent this
possibility at the expense of making separation more difficult.
Figure 8 - Miniature connectors make installation easier.
After you have fully read the installation instructions that came with your
decoder, we suggest you draw yourself a schematic showing all connections
between the DSD and various sub-components. This will help you determine
which type of connector is best suited for your needs.
