Hi Mike,
I have an atlas turntable as well. Sounds like you have worked out how you will align the tracks with the turntable. The turntable motor will need DC as a regular locomotive would (motors are similar) allowing you to reverse polarity/direction as needed. It sounds like you are new to DCC? If so, you will probably not have an extra decoder lying around. I had an old one kicking about so I used it on the turntable motor. I hooked the motor up to the decoder as you would a train motor and tied the wheel/track wires of the decoder to the track. I programmed the starting voltage high (192 I think) and gave it a new address from the default 3. Now I can call up the turntable from the handheld, click it up a notch, and run it like a loco forward and back.
As for wiring the track, I didn't have any instructions. If the instructions you have don't work out, here is how I did it.
What I did has lay the first track leading into the turntable. Then I took power from the lead-in track over to the 2 terminals on the turntable. I lined up the turntable with the lead-in track.
Now the question is whether or not the 2 wires are the right way around. If they are not, when a train rolls on to the turntable, it will likely short out. There are better and safer ways to test if the wires are the right way around than using an engine. I used a voltmeter. If I choose a rail on the lead-in track and the matching turntable rail with the voltmeter, I am looking for zero volts. I could also use a 12 volt or car lightbulb instead of a voltmeter. It should not light up. If I choose a rail on the lead-in and the opposite rail on the turntable, I should see voltage greater than zero/ the light burns bright.
I am not sure if this is making any sense to you, so I will leave further details out for now and will try to answer any questions you have at this point.
As you add tracks leading into the turntable, mine had the small letters A and B for each position. My lead-in was to an A position, so I wired the other A position tracks "in parallel" with the lead-in track. left rail wire to left rail wire, right to right... For the B positions, I reverse the wires on those tracks...
I will leave it to you at this point as I am not sure this is useful info to you and I might be rambling... let me know.
