M MrBugs New Member Jan 23, 2005 #1 Hi, I'm looking for a replacement method for performing the manual switching shown in the diagram below. There are 6 rotary switches with 6 inputs and one output for each. **broken link removed** Thanks for looking everyone. Brent

M MrBugs New Member Jan 23, 2005 #3 what is being switched. Sorry about that, 12-20 vdc @ 10amps is what needs to be switched both the positive and negative line. Thanks Brent

tansis New Member Jan 23, 2005 #4 The switch contacts themselves could be replaced with solid state relays, though these are expensive mind you. https://www.power-io.com/products/hdd.htm Hopefully somebody else might a cheaper alternative using power MOSFET's , one of the circuit archives across the web may yield good circuit. The switch action / control is a fairly simple matter using a 4017 ic can drive each relay group in sequence from a single push button.
