Roco 10833 Z21 Start DCC Digital control set with NZ 230V Power pack

The Roco Z21 DCC start set offers everything required to get started in DCC control. This economically priced operating system offers many possibilities.

Having owned a NCE Powercab (which is a fine unit) for many years, I find the Roco multiMAUS hand controller to be a refreshingly simple unit to operate.  Once programmed, which takes a matter of minutes following the Instructions supplied in Kiwi English, you will appreciate the following attributes:   

The multiMAUS hand controller is:

• Light and easy to hold. 
•  It has an adjustable backlit LED display.  
• There is a clip on the back so you can hang it off screws placed at various positions around your baseboard (no special holder required) 
•  It has a rotary knob with a firm central stop indent. Many train modellers graduating from a 12V DC (Analogue) system will like this, rather than an up and down speed increase/decrease buttons on some other brands. 
• When you switch on the multiMAUS, the Last Loco used will appear, and scrolling through the Library of your programmed Locos is just so easy.  I.E. no need to key in in the Loco number each time you change Locos!

I should also mention it has the facility to use Alpha/numerical ... so you can programme in some letters as well as numbers...... no more peering down on your locos to read the minute Cab numbers you have programmed into your controller.  A large number of Locomotive addresses can be operated with direct input;  64 can be stored in a data bank and labelled with names and numbers for quick recollection.  You can use up to 31 functions (including Headlights) if the model has a suitable DCC decoder.  And you can also easily switch numerous points (turnouts) or signals ..... if you wish.

The Z21 Control box:  is compact and can be fitted underneath most base boards. The power supply inlet & outlet (to tracks) sockets are at the rear. There are 2 x Cable sockets on the front allowing for 2 x multiMAUS hand controllers to be used for multi operator layouts.  The Z21 can be upgraded to wireless to use a Smart phone or tablet later on if you wish.
