# 4531-1 - Manual Points
|
||||
|
||||
To motorize a track switch (manual point) build at least one of the build in the image below. for more information about the build see the [model.ldr](model.ldr) file.
|
||||
|
||||
You also need a [Large Powered Up Motor](https://rebrickable.com/parts/22169/motor-large-powered-up/72/). The motor can be attached to both sides of the track switch by pushing the axle through and placing the pins on the other side.
|
||||
|
||||
The initial idea of the model was from this [YouTube video by The Technic Gear LEGO Reviews](https://youtu.be/qWDMIOtVFSY).
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Software
|
||||
|
||||
The software is written in such a way that you can connect up to 4 track switches to each of the ports of the Powered Up Technic Hub. It doesn´t matter which port you use and how manu you use.
|
||||
|
||||
At first start the ports are checked for a motor and if present it is calibrated.
|
||||
|
||||
The buttons on the remote switch the following ports:
|
||||
|
||||
| Button | A | B | C | D |
|
||||
|--------------------|---|---|---|---|
|
||||
| Left + | X | | | |
|
||||
| Left - | | X | | |
|
||||
| Right + | | | X | |
|
||||
| Right - | | | | X |
|
||||
| Left middle (red) | X | X | | |
|
||||
| Right middle (red) | | | X | X |
|
||||
| Center (green) | X | X | X | X |
|
||||
|
||||
The switch can also be turned over manualy. The software is aware of its position before it will switch over the next time.
|
||||
|
||||
The LED on the hub will represet the battery voltage according to the table below.
|
||||
|
||||
| Voltage | Color |
|
||||
|-------------------|--------|
|
||||
| Above 9.0 Volt | Green |
|
||||
| Above 8.1 Volt | Yellow |
|
||||
| Above 7.2 Volt | Orange |
|
||||
| 7.2 Volt or below | Red |
|
||||
|
||||
## Advise
|
||||
|
||||
Make sure your manual point(s) turn over smoothly or the motor can not provide the power to turn it over.
