I have always powered my TIU with a extra Z-500. The other day I plugged some switches into the 14 volt pin. What I discovered is that the pin is always hot. On power up regardless of throttle position the pin is hot. No need to turn throttles off then on to get power. I deceided to short out one throttle. As the light turned red and both throttles went dead the 14 volt pin was still hot. No need for a seperate power supply to keep my TIU powered all the time. I did not test the 10 volt pin but assume it works the same way.
Thought I would pass this along as it eliminates a need for a seperate power supply if using a Z-4000 because pretty much one is already there.
