Z-Stuff Two Headed Signal Wiring

1. I assume you mean the 1050 signal? Did you remember to cover the sensor on the signal with electrical tape? If you cover the sensor with tape then connect the 1050 yellow wire to the gray wire of your 1070 detector. Then red to red and black to black. The 1050 white wire hangs free unless you want to connect it to the yellow wire of another 1050 further down the track. Connecting the signal yellow wire to the 1070 gray keeps the signal green until the detector is tripped then the signal goes red. Note if connecting to the 1070 gray wire does not work properly then try connecting to the 1070 white wire.

2. I'm not sure about an 'orange' wire - do you mean red?

3. I have not used a double signal. If they have two sets of the standard white and yellow wires then you can connect them to two different detectors.

4. As a fast check to make sure the signal is working take the tape off the sensor and connect both red and black to transformer power/ground. The lights should be green until you cover the sensor with your finger.

The two headed signal has an ornge wire that supposedly connects to a downtrack DZ-1070 so that the bottom signal head can turn from green to red. I actualkly have the 1050-2 signal.

From the product description the yellow wire is the input for the upper head. The orange wire is the input for the bottom head. These wires connect to the white or gray wire of the individual 1070 detector. If the orange wire when connected to the 1070 white wire does not work then try connecting it to the 1070 gray wire.

Many thanks for your advice. Interestingly, the 1070 that I purchased only had a yellow wire and a white wire. I have sent it back to have it replaced with one that has the additional grey wire.
