don't get along. The Atlas switch machines (only 4.7 Ω) triggers the overload protection in the SwitchPilot. Put in a call to ESU US - no reply or solution yet.

As a resistive load, 4.7Ω would require a current supply of over 2.5A which exceeds the SwitchPilot's 2A limit.  Prolonged usage could result in damage.

However, if you want to give it a go, try switching on the Peco Point mode.  You'll need to look into the manual for instructions, but you can set one of the CV values.
