The switch decoder is then in "Configuration mode, option 1".
2. Keep the programming button held down for at least 3 seconds again until the blue "Status" LED and white "Program" LED
begin to flash together. Then release the programming button again.
The white "Program" LED will then flash normally twice (short, short, pause; short, short, pause; etc.), and the red LED will be lit
continuously.
The switch decoder is then in "Configuration mode, option 2".
3. Keep the programming button held down for at least 3 seconds again until the blue "Status" LED and white "Program" LED
begin to flash together. Then release the programming button again.
The white "Program" LED will then flash normally three times (short, short, short, pause; short, short, short, pause; etc.).
The switch decoder is then in "Configuration mode, option 3".
4. The current addressing mode is displayed by the red LED for "ROCO" or the green LED for "RCN-213".
The mode can now be switched over by briefly pressing the programming button.
5. After you have selected the desired addressing mode, hold down the programming button for at least 3 seconds until the blue
"Status" LED and white "Program" LED begin to flash together. Then release the programming button.
The new setting is then applied and configuration mode is exited. The white LED goes out and the blue LED indicates normal
mode.
Factory setting: "ROCO".
INFORMATION: Use the "RCN-213" setting for operation on control centres from other manufacturers, see also section
ration on control centres from other manufacturers .
6.2 Configuration via POM
The Z21 switch DECODER can be configured for your applications on the main track via POMprogramming commands and CVs. "POM"
stands for "programming on the main" and "CV" stands for "configuration variable", which are described in detail in the section
list. No programming track is required.
If the DCC control centre and the Z21 control centres have a RailCom
When using the Z21 Single or Dual BOOSTER (10806, 10807) and the CAN-Bus, POM reading is also possible in the booster section.
INFORMATION: Before POM programming with control centres from other manufacturers, set the turnout addressing of the
Z21 switch DECODER to "RCN-213"! To set the turnout addressing, see section
When programming on the main track, a distinction must be made between POM programming commands for accessory decoders and
for loco decoders.
6.2.1 Configuration via POM programming commands for accessory decoders
When using POM programming commands for accessory decoders, the Z21 switch DECODER can be configured using the Z21-Mainte-
nance Tool at any time even when installed.
