im really confused about the operation of these kind of switched i need to use one because the toggle allows the user to choose between 3 modes of operation.
can some one explain the circuit for me, im i dont know how it works, i googled but didn’t help me...
the 4 input terminals contain a different input each.... and there a 3 sets of output which each have 4 output terminals.... these input terminals can be connected to any of these output set.....
how does it work? say i want to the first mode to be off (no power) the second mode to have power (signal A) , and the third mode to have power (signal B)
i dont know how to go on about it
i drew a pic for you to help me understand what will happen.
i really appreciate your help A.Anand
what you have drawn is a 4 pole double throw.... these 4 inputs A,B,C,D switch together and hence either E(i),F(i),G(i),H(i) will have power or E(ii),F(ii),G(ii),H(ii) will have power at any instant of time.... if you add a third terminal E(iii),F(iii),G(iii),H(iii) then it is 4 pole triple throw switch.....
are you able to understand it.....
you know where u said that either E(i),F(i),G(i),H(i) will have power or E(ii),F(ii),G(ii),H(ii) will have power .....does that depend on what i feed the inputs?
and also, whats confusing me is the why the hell do e for example have two lines? can you explain that?
hey E(i) and E(ii) are connected to different circuits..... it wont be connected to the same place as you have drawn in the circuit.... whether E(i) gets power or E(ii) gets power depends on you i.e to which one you connect A,,.....
A.Anand thanx i understand now. i just needed time to sink in, i undestand 100% now
i wasnt looking at the actuall outputs off e f g h...
each set will give a different signal
