Power supply to Trackside beacon
The beacon operates from a 12v DC supply. A sealed lead-acid battery
with a minimum rating of 2.5 Amp/hour is recommended. This provides
about 15 hours of operation.
The condition of the battery is indicated by the colour of the LED

The voltage is too low (replace the battery).
3. No Colour:
Battery exhausted or disconnected.
