How to wire up a analogue/digital track?
1. Analogue:
Run analogue cars on a positively wired analogue track.
2. Wireless Analogue.
Run analogue cars on a positively wired analogue track using the Scorpius Wireless Controller and the Scorpius Wireless Analogue Module (WAM).
3. Wireless digital
Run Scorpius chipped cars on a Scorpius digital track.
4.Wired digital:
Use any CU on your Scorpius Hybrid track.
How to do Analogue?
Simply wire each lane as per any positively wired analogue track like this:

How to do wireless analogue?
First purchase the Scorpius WAM:

Pair the controller to the WAM using the controller and race analogue cars wirelessly. 50A mosfet drivers.
How to change track into a hybrid analogue/Scorpius Wireless digital track?
Simply make up a jumper cable for under $5 like this:

The track now employs fulltime power for Scorpius Wireless digital.
How to wire a wired digital control unit into the Scorpius hybrid wiring system?
You don't need a $800 switch box to have a proper hybrid digital/analogue track using old style wired Control Units.
First remove the start line track piece and discard.
Secondly re-route the wires that go from the CU to the track to a plug.
Plug in like this:

You now have simple, almost zero cost way of running of running Carrera digital on a positively wired track.
*Scorpius does not recommend or use negative wired analogue controllers or negatively wired analogue powerbases.
As you can see EVERY POSSIBILITY HAS BEEN COVERED for any digital or analogue scenario, for wired and wireless systems!
This method is cheap, quick and easy to use. The system is designed so a third party CU or Powerbase can never be damaged.
Here's a video I did 13 years ago that is still valid in 2024 and will be for decades. Another proud Scorpius first.
