I have acquired an actual traffic light, you know Red, Yellow and Green. I want to wire it into the track, using Trackmate timing, and have the lights work, according to the condition of the track.
I will likely have to re-wire the light, as it's currently been modded to be plugged into the wall and all three lights come on. I want the red light on when the track is dead, the green light to come on and the red light to go off when the track is live. I'd like the yellow light to come on when we hit the final 10 second countdown on a heat. Of course, this all has to be controlled by Trackmate somehow...
Any help? Bear in mind, I'm not an electrician...
