MZ5VTTL History


The MZ5VTTL is a completely in house project. We wanted to see if we could control a lighting system with the MZRS232. We were able to do it with an RS232 to X10 converter. After some thought we realized that it would not be practical to purchase a converter for each switch. The MZRS232 was redesigned to have TTL level outputs instead of true RS232 level outputs. We then built a small circuit board that would allow these TTL level signals to be combined and came up with the TTLCMB1 . The only difference between the MZ5VTTL and the MZRS232 is the output driver.

MZ5VTTL Description


Basic KitThe MZ5VTTL was built to experiment with X10 signalling. It can still be programmed with MZSOFT . MZSOFT can be downloaded and distributed at no charge. The Manual can be downloaded by clicking DOWNLOAD MANUAL HERE.

MZ5VTTL Order

The switch can be ordered as a kit containing the main board, cover plate, rubber inlay, power supply, programming cable and programming CD. It can also be purchased as just the working circuit board. This is a good choice if you just want to try it out.


Please note contact us for order information. Single quantities are $29.95 per kit.
