Question about Toggles GGG and Helios

[nobrot]

What would be the difference between using ST or DT toggle switches when interfacing using GGG GPWiz40 with Helios? is there a difference in how they work with that setup?

 

I want to order switches but don't want to order the wrong types!!

no need for DT, unless you wanted to control something else at the same time when you flip the switch. Check out my links in my sig for tutorials on GGG boards and Helios

Don't confuse double throw with double pole.

 

Double throw is usually ON-OFF-ON type configuration. Or in A10 terms ARM-SAFE-TRAIN.

 

Double pole means the switch controls two different circuits. Not a whole lot of use in a pit, unless you using one circuit to signal the game, and the other circuit to control something in the physical pit (maybe flood light switch).

 

In interest of completeness single throw is usually ON-OFF like a light switch. Single pole means just one circuit through the switch.

Yeah sorry. Totally mis-read that. :blush::music_whistling:

Heh, thanks guys, I know the difference between DP and DT, what I am confused about is if there is a preference of either DT or ST when using GGG and Helios,

 

OutLAW, I will check your vids, thanks !!
