Manufacturer description

Zen decoder software has always been smooth, clever and easy to use but our new BLACK decoder range takes this to a new level, with extended and improved automatic braking and shuttle abilities, simple-to-use ONE step locomotive set-up and advanced brown-out protection. All of our decoders are tested at least 3 times before we package them for sale, so we know that they all work perfectly when we sell them and you can be quite confident that reliability is assured. The DCD-ZNmini.4 replaces the previous version – DCD-Zmini

• – 19mm x 12mm
