I wonder if any luminary out there can advise me on this -
Looking at a chip I have just put into a modified Heljan 37 (Loksound XL v4.0), it occurred to me that I might be able to wire the red lights to spare aux ports (an extra one now the fan is disconnected for good) and programme them to two function keys so that I can switch them on/off depending on whether the loco is light engine or pulling a train.
Is it that easy or am I missing something that will go bang!
Will the lights need a resistor and how to wire it - bearing in mind I can just about wire a DPDT switch.
