Once installed and wired, the switch machine allows the turnout to be \u003cstrong\u003ethrown electrically from a layout control panel\u003c\/strong\u003e instead of requiring the operator to manually change the turnout at trackside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned specifically for compatible \u003cstrong\u003eAtlas 2700-series N Scale turnouts\u003c\/strong\u003e, ATL2715 is the left-hand version of Atlas's surface-mounted remote switch machine. It is a useful upgrade for layouts where operators want centralized turnout control from a convenient operating position.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eConvert Compatible Turnouts to Remote Control\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eATL2715 allows compatible Atlas Standard and #6 switches to be converted to \u003cstrong\u003eremote electrical operation\u003c\/strong\u003e. Rather than reaching across the layout to manually change the turnout, the switch machine can be wired so the route is controlled from your operating panel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis can be especially useful on larger layouts or in areas where turnouts are difficult to reach during normal operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDesigned for Atlas 2700-Series Turnouts\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAtlas specifies ATL2715 for use with its \u003cstrong\u003e2700-series N Scale turnouts\u003c\/strong\u003e. This includes compatible Standard and #6 switches designed to accept the screw-on remote switch machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBecause this switch machine is designed for specific Atlas turnout configurations, verify the turnout's item number and compatibility before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eLeft-Hand Remote Switch Machine\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eATL2715 is the \u003cstrong\u003eleft-hand version\u003c\/strong\u003e of the Atlas N Scale remote switch machine. The left\/right designation refers to the switch machine configuration required for the corresponding compatible turnout installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor layouts using multiple turnout orientations, select the appropriate left- or right-hand switch machine for each compatible Atlas turnout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eControl Your Turnout from the Layout Panel\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRemote turnout operation allows the model railroader to change track routes without physically reaching the turnout.
