What I would like to be able to do is use my point solonoids with my old school peco switches, but without having to run the wires for the points all the way around my board as that would require around 40 ft of 3 wires for each point, and there will be around 24 points on the layout !
Having a wireless control board for each solonoid, or being able to group several to one multiple control unit mounted nearby would sort that.
I am aware that I can use my DCC controller to do this, but would prefer there to be actual switches, as A: controlling locos and points from one controller would tax my feeble brain capacity beyond its ability, and B: with switches they can be plotted to a schematic so I can work out what switch throws which point
Is there a way to do this ?
If not, could I use a separate DCC controller (like a select) specifically for points and display points visually on a screen if wired separately from the main DCC loco controller (I have a Signatrack Ace 3 controller I bought for loco running when I started collecting all the gubbins).
