Part 16: The Z21 detector

This video introduces the Z21 detector (item no.: 10819) and explains what an detector actually is, what you need it for and how to connect it to the track and the Z21 system.

I'm using the Z21 with iTrain. I am also using the Z21 10808 detectors that has Railcom built in so it shows the train ID in the block also.

I think people would also want explanations about the differences between the two available detectors and how to use them with boosters.

PC connenction explanation would be appreciated! 😊

What is a detector with AppZ21 for? For display only? Cannot reference a route. The ideal would be to be able to make routes where the signals were referenced to the position of the switches and the occupancy detectors (track circuits).
