-In the default setting of the z21 / Z21 there is an address offset of +4 between Multimaus and Rocrail. This means that in Rocrail the addresses 1-4 can not be used. If e.g. address 1 of the multimouse is to be used in Rocrail address 5. But there is an elegant way to eliminate this shift. To do this, connect the z21 to the computer via the z21-maintenance-tool, activate the option "DCC-switch address shift +4" resp. "DCC tournout-addressing according to RCN-213" on the "Settings" tab and then confirm with "Write". Then the addresses from 1 can also be used in Rocrail. Addressing is done exclusively according to FADA (flat addressing). \\+In the default setting of the z21 / Z21 there is an address offset of +4 between Multimaus and Rocrail.
