This installation guide is suitable for the MP10 turnout drive from mtb

On the ith the article number WI-M-4L-U there are three wires, to which a suitable socket was soldered in the example.

Install and connect the CTC-Module

The CTC-Module is mounted on or under the model railway layout.

• Connect the yellow wire (W1-VBB) to the "+COM" terminal of the MP10.
• Connect the two blue wires (W1-Red and W1-Green) to the "M1" and "M2" terminals of the MP10.
• Connect the brown wire to the negative pole of the power supply or to the track.
• Connect the red wire to the positive pole or to the other track.

TODO wiring diagram

The remaining three individual wires (2x blue and 1x yellow) can be used to connect a signal or another turnout. Two IR beacons can be connected to the four-pin socket.

Connect the CTC-Module to WiFi

If the CTC-Turnout-Module is not yet connected to the model railway WiFi, you must do this first. You can find the instructions in the user manual in Chapter 3.1 "Connecting modules to WiFi" .

Open configuration

A connected CTC-Turnout-Module can be found under its name in the module list in the CTC-App. Click on the pencil icon to open the "switch cabinet configuration".

Click on the "Change config" button:

Add product

The MP10 was connected like a classic double-coil turnout drive. However, since it only moves as long as the switching pulse is applied, it requires a configuration that keeps the output active for at least 3 seconds.

In the config dialog, click the plus button to the right of "Connected products" to select what product you have connected:

Select the product catalog "universal-turnouts" and then click "Apply":

Give your turnout a meaningful name and select the appropriate product and product configuration. Then click "Apply":

Connect product

Now you need to specify which connections of the CTC-Module the turnout is connected to. The plug used above is soldered to "W1-green" and "W1-red". Select "W1-green":

You can then click the "Test" button to check whether the turnout reacts and in which direction. The short switching pulse of 500 ms is not enough to set the turnout, but it is enough to recognize in which direction the drive is moving. In my example, W1-green switches to straight. Therefore, I now select the "straight" line in "Connections and parameters". By clicking "Connect", you assign the left-marked "W1-green: Output-Pin #16" to the "straight" connection:

Then connect "W1-red" (Output-Pin #17) to the "turnout" connection in the same way:

Upload configuration

Once all pins are connected, you can click the "Upload" button to save the changes to the config on the CTC-Turnout-Module:

The CTC-Turnout-Module restarts.

Turnout in the signal tower

After a few seconds, the newly configured turnout appears in the signal tower:
