Track Call Buttons - Panel Mount
 
These are arcade quality track call buttons perfect for panel mounting applications.  Mounting hole diameter is 1 1/8".  The mounting stem is long enough to mount on surfaces up to 3/4" thick.  Includes top-of-the-line "Cherry" brand switch and retaining nut.  Colors available include red, white, blue, black and yellow.

Note:  Because of the large hole required, it is often difficult to include a track call button on the controller hookup panel.  However, the track call button can often be mounted immediately adjacent to the controller hookup panel in the wood surface panel is mounted to.

12 Volt Relays
 
If you plan to incorporate a race management system into your layout, most include software which will control track power at the beginning and end of a race along with track calls.  The software typically works in conjunction with a 12 volt relay to turn track power on/off.  Using this arrangement, the track power supply remains powered on.  The relay is typically wired between the power supply and the driver's stations.  When power to the track needs to be turned off, the race management system will cause the relay to "open" which effectively cuts power to the track.  To turn power to the track back on, the race management system will cause the relay to "close"
 
Both relays offered below are designed for heavy duty use.  These high quality Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT) relays are very reliable; however, it is a good idea to have a spare on hand just in case (particularly if you host race events).  Use 1/4" female push-on terminals to make your wiring connections.
 
Tip:  Mount a spare relay right next to the primary relay.  If you should ever have a problem with the primary relay, you can quickly and easily remove the wiring from the primary relay and re-attach it to the spare.  Do not solder the female push-on terminals to the relay "blades" so they can be removed if necessary.
