I did end up buying a $14 power source with AC out and it worked perfectly with my remote switches (turnouts).  Thanks to all for the help!   

That makes sense now.  Thank you!  I will give the 2nd controller with AC a try.  It just seems ironic that the EZ Command, being billed as the 'control center', has no provision for powering remote switch control, which seem to be the 2nd most important thing anyone would want to control other than the locomotives.......  I am obviously new to this also ..... thanks for your help mveleza.

I'm using the EZ Command DCC controller.  Other than the I/O port, there is only 1 output to the track which I am assuming is DC....I don't see anywhere to attach to AC.  Do I need an AC power supply for the accessory remote switches?

Also, I tried what NewGuy suggested and it didn't work.  Thanks for the suggestion though.

Any other thoughts?

I am not able to get my remote switches to work.  I hook them up as shown but all I hear when I try to activate the switch is the little motor inside the switch running but the track does not move.  I'm sure I'm doing something wrong.  Anyone able to help?
