Z1 and ZH1 provide 8 or 16 equal and independently controllable function
outputs. They can be switched on and off with commands from the digital
control unit or with locally connected key buttons.
The decoder uses DC power to switch the connected accessories, regardless
of whether the decoder's terminals Trafo are connected to a transformer, a
power supply or the track signal.
The following pictures show the function principle of Z1 and Z1H. On the left
side the power supply and the track terminals and on the other side the
function outputs and the local supply terminals for accessories are depicted.
The Z1 operates a switch between function output and local ground whereas
the ZH1 switches the function output to the local supply. Accessory devices
of the Z1 are connected between function output and local supply, devices
for ZH1 are attached to function output and ground.
