DiMAX 800Z Central Station
NOW WITH ADDITIONAL USB-INTERFACE

The DiMAX 800Z Digital Central Station is a favorable alternative since it is built on the same technical properties as the DiMAX 1200Z. Up to 8 Amps driving current without an integrated transformer allows using the 800Z for all scales from Z to G. Operating Voltage: 16 to 24 Volts DC or 12 to 20 Volts AC. The current output can be adjusted to 2, 4, or 8 Amps. This option is desirable for smaller scales.

Since July 2005 the 800Z features a voltage limitation of 22 V which is the optimum for garden layouts which often suffer of voltage drops. This should not be a problem for decoders that are in compliance with the NMRA standard. This standard requires decoders to be able to handle voltages up to 27 V. Decoders of Massoth® and LGB® are tested for max 30V to be able to guarantee a stable and consistent operation.

A separate programming track outlet, booster connection and a user friendly PC Programming interface are integrated as well. The 800Z provides a connector for LGB® or DiMAX boosters on the back of the unit. Other NMRA compatible boosters may be used.
