I would like to wire a single 3 position switch, preferably toggle or rocker, in that order, to control three items.
I beleive I need an on/on/on switch and 2 relays. Items are A, B, and C.
Position 1 would = A,B,C ON
Position 2 would = A,C ON, B OFF with no loss of power (even momentarily) to A & C while moving to position 2 from position 1
Position 3 would = A,C OFF, B ON
I may need to use a make before break switch (shorting) but am not certain of that.
I have tried "connecting the dots" on this unfinished schematic... and I cannot figure it out... Can anybody help?
Here's the schematic:
Thanks for any help...
