Heljan DCC Turntable part 1

[@woodsettscentral1196]

Hi Glynn, Great video. The turntable you have chosen is the dogs b....s. I'm really delighted with mine, works a treat. One little tip for your future install of the run out tracks - decide on the track locations, programme the turntable to stop at the chosen location before you finally nail down the feed the run out track. It is easier to make a minor adjustment of 0.5 mm to the final track position than to programme the stopping point to a similar accuracy. Hope that helps - enjoy. Regards Barry - Woodsetts Central

Thanks Barry, I was wondering on how to set up the other tracks, your suggestion makes sense.just waiting for the flexy code 75 t0 arrive, I know I will have to have a straight connection to the turntable. cant wait to set it all up, its just so smooth! Thanks Glynn

Hi Glynn I bet your happy I'm in the shed I've been using my turntable and I Wright in joy it. I have a peco turntable but I use a indexing motor. Colin

[@LNER1946]

Hi Colin, yes very happy ! just so simple after all the messing around with the peco, but not cheap! but hopefully worth it. thx Glynn

Great update Glynn I'm afraid I will h ve no room on Tram Junction for a turntable, but never mind. That Heljen model looks very nice.

[@LNER1946]

Thanks Scott, All with your inspiration. thanks again Glynn

[@jerryallen34]

Glynn, watching with interest as i have thought about this as ibe watched your struggles wuth the noisy peco one. Cheers Jerry

[@LNER1946]

Hi Jerry, yes, definitely worth the investment, so quiet after all the messing around I did for 6 months and having a sensor on it makes programming so easy' Thanks for commenting.Glynn

[@cbrooks122000]

Thanks for the video, I bought the Heljan because it was quieter than my old Hornby/Triang one, but have often wondered whether I should have bought the Peco seeing as it looks more realistic. Having seen your video it appears I made the right choice.

[@LNER1946]

Think you have made the right choice, was always trying to sort the Peco one out but now have a good working turntable with no hassle. All the best Glynn

Hi Glynn. Hope you had a good Easter weekend. Great up date and "wow" how quiet is that what a difference from the other one. Regards George....

[@LNER1946]

Hi George and thanks had a relaxing few days off, not much time spent on the railway as her who has to be obeyed decided that I wanted to spend my time in the garden! and yes the turntable is so quiet after all the messing around I did with the Pico. thx again Glynn

[@ianmccartney7292]

Can you please tell me the model number of this turntable? Thanks.

[@simod]

I would love a turn table but my electrical skills are very limited. How is it to set up?

[@LNER1946]

Hi, very easy, Do you use DCC? Glynn

[@simod]

@@LNER1946 yes.

[@LNER1946]

Then just wire to turntable control box off your bus wire and away you go, the control box just plugs into the turntable. Really easy. Glynn

[@simod]

🤔 sounds too easy
