ZA / ZAS Handle option
The ZA and ZAS handles are designed to give an additional axis of proportional or switched control, using fingertip action to rotate the handle.
The handles have a self-centring action when released and rotate about their centre, giving either analogue output with switched reference signals (ZA or ZA2) or end of travel switching only (ZAS).
