I am planning on purchasing an Oneida V3000 and have been researching the different switching options available and need a little guidance.
I like the idea of having a few well placed switches around the shop instead of having a remote to always loose. Seems simple enough to just get a contactor and wire some switches into that, but the more I looked into it the more confused I became. The DC already has a magnetic starter on it so do I have to disable that or can I have the contactor that I put together then go to the magnetic starter on the DC?
Also when looking around Oneida's website I came across this: http://www.oneida-air.com/inventoryD.asp?item_no=AMA000000&CatId={29CDCAF0-0D43-423E-9C26-89AB411B086E} Which seems to be exactly what I need but they don't really have any info about it. When I asked the salesman he said I don't want that because in order to use that I need to also buy these switches. http://www.oneida-air.com/inventoryD.asp?item_no=AMP000001&CatId={29CDCAF0-0D43-423E-9C26-89AB411B086E} Can't I just make up my own switches?
