    Subject: carling s700
    From: Michael Lazarowicz <tllaz330@gmail.com>
    For some reason I am really getting confused about the. Batt/master switch and how it is wired. I am using a clarling toggle, S2077 I believe. It has three positions. I think this switch is a On/On/On type. You want one position for everything off. One for Battery only and one for Battery and Alternator. When I look at the diagram of the switch for page Z-11 it appears that one position connects the Battery only, one connects the battery and the Alt. and one is off. It appears that the one position connects with Term 3 and six which are used as the off position. Am I even close on this ? Mike

    Mike, Your analysis seems correct to me. I could not find part number S2077. B&C part number is S700-2-10. Since no wires are connected to terminals 3 and 6, that position (down) must be off. Terminal 1 is connected with the switch either centered or fully up. Terminal 4 is connected only with the switch fully up. -------- Joe Gores Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=455675#455675

It shows a simple DC master ON/OFF wherein the alternator can be disabled by pulling the field breaker. The switch called out is the simple DPDT/ON-ON S700-2-3 device (B&C part number) Emacs! Figure Z-11 shows the progressive transfer S700-2-10 switch that emulated the split rocker switch popularized on many single engine aircraft over the years. Emacs! Examination of the schematic symbol illustrates internal functionality of the DP3T/ON-ON-ON device. EITHER style of switch can be used . . .

    Another brand of meter. The one I have is an analog meter. It is about 3" x 6" x 8" and used those old fashioned carbon zinc batteries. Alkaline replacements work. They were also considered good meters in their time. I don't know if Simpson still makes any measuring equipment. It won't count the number of the Simpson's appearances on TV because I change the channel before they get to the introductions.

    It seems that you want to wire the wig wag as shown in Eric's diagram "B". You can use a DP3T ON-ON-ON switch as shown in the diagram. Down position will be off. Mouser part number 633-M204401. Do NOT use the 2-10 progressive transfer switch. Or you can use a 3 position ON-OFF-ON DPDT switch with center off. Make sure there are no parentheses in the ON-OFF-ON description because parentheses indicate a momentary switch position. -------- Joe Gores Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=455691#455691
