Z Stuff Controller
Posted by bobcatw on Monday, April 6, 2009 4:10 PM

 

 

I just connected a DZ 1002 controller to an Atlas Switch machine.  I operate conventionally and wired the controller and machine as shown by Gargraves.  The machine and controller work but both LEDs stay lighted instead of one at a time.  Any suggestions?

You should try to push the liuttle LED light bulbs in a little and see if that helps. Also try throwing the switch manually and se what happens.

By the way, what is a DZ 1002? I have heard of a DZ 1000 & a DZ 1008.

Are you certain wiring is correct and insulator pins are in the proper place?

I checked with Z-Stuff.  Apparently their controller LEDs will not operate with the Atlas switch machine.  The DZ 1002 is the controller number.
