Thanks
I see now, the discussion moved off of the standard Carrera Go Terminal Track to a separate power connection to the track.
The schematic is rather confusing. It looks as though the Power Supply + goes into the WHITE lead of the controller. Black of the Controller comes out to the direction switch upper right. RED of the controller goes back to the PS - and to the direction switch upper left contact. In the normal position of the switch as shown, the BLACK Controller lead goes to the + terminal of the track in that direction (R) while the second leg of the track (-).
To me without the switch
PowerSupply + >>> Controller White >>> Controller Black >>> Track positive +
PowerSupply - >>> Controller Red >>> Track positive -
Not sure what the Potentiometer is doing in the Controller RED lead though? Is this an additional BRAKE to the Controller (if it has one)?
Thanks
