I recently ordered the Darwin kit, which I havent received yet. While waiting, a few questions had popped up. I have seen in the gallery that some people have put LEDs to indicate which input/output is active. How do I wire this up on the Darwin? Also, If I wire up the loop circuit, I would have to put loop cables on the outside of the chassis if the loop is not in use, right? Edited by user Wednesday, May 23, 2007 4:08:23 AM(UTC)

To add LEDs to see wich source is selected:
is it a simple matter of putting LEDs in series with the manual switch?

I have updated the Darwin Control Wiring diagram to include the addition of LEDs. HEREYou will need to calculate the value of your resistors based on the LED you decide to use. If you Google for "LED CALCULATOR" you should find a few hundred tools to help you out. It is possible to use a single resistor if you are sure you will only have one LED lit at a time. This is just one possible implementation, but hopefully it conveys the idea.
