Hi All, Just bought this 3 position toggle switch described as on-on-on from Element 14.
I need each position of the switch to be completely exclusive. On measuring the connections it looks like this is not possible. The pins are in 2 rows, 3 pins per row.
For instance in the middle position 2 of the pins in 1 row are connected. But when moving the switch to the right the same 2 pins are connected. Moving the switch to the left disconnects these 2 pins.
Anybody know how to connect this switch to get exclusive connection for each 3 movements? From the description as an on-on-on switch you would think this should be possible. Some one on google states that this type of switch is rare. It also may be that element 14 has sent me the wrong switch. The description was for an on-on-on switch.
