Sharing some project planning phase: A (digital) ELECTRO-MECHANICAL Network
RJSV:
This photo shows, everything is non-attached, so all comes apart, by simple pulling, and wiggling a bit.
The two main, interim walls, separate the 3 compartments, of the 3 Pole switch.
RJSV:
...the color shots just add a little, to the grey on grey color scheme (of the blank wood).
RJSV:
This photo shows more detail, how the mechanical switch 'toggles', there showing receptor wheel on left will be getting contact / rotation.
The signal is 'dry switched', meaning that there is no actual rotary signal, until later with a different cycle.
RJSV:
...and this view, toggle seen causing contact with the receptor wheel, on right side of photo. That side is the so-called 'chain' side, having (usually) a rotary signal in and rotary signal (chain) output.
The other side, of switch is the 'SELECTED' or 'ready' state.
RJSV:
...and a little more detail doesn't hurt:
The compartment shown, is the 'C' channel, situated the lowest of the 3 segments (A,B, and C).
Not shown here, but each of those rectangular compartments is further split, into INPUT, OUTPUT sub-compartments.
Generally, if nothing else, this arrangement gives some structure, to work with while solving basic problems.
By the way: those other shafts seen poking through, are for the other switch segments, and have to be carefully checked, for clearance.
