Fitting a Massoth XLS sound decoder to a Corpet, having a problem deciding where to connect the smoke unit, any advice would be appreciated.

I would usually use the F1 (Aux1) output and the common positive.

Do check you have set the divider for this output, as you need to match the output to the voltage rating of the smoke unit. *

*I am assuming this is a standard small heater in the smoke-stack, and not anything more sophisticated?

It is the standard small heater, not sure what is meant by divider, presume you mean setting the voltage (5v) to the element. Is it still button 7 on the massoth handset to operate.
Thanks for replying

Yes, setting the voltage..

I normally set it to button '7' yes. - But, you may find that (as well as operating the whistle) that button '1' also operates the function 1 output by default.

As you will be checking the divider setting, it should be trivial to check/adjust the setting for this.
