You might have to search around his site a bit, some of the "hidden gold" is in the powerpoint presentations he did for a yearly show in York (USA).
It's funny that the important chart on that page is nowhere in the instructions supplied.
If you get stuck, Dave is a really nice guy and usually responds by email too.

Hi Dave how's you, just on the subject of Aristo sound receivers, am I correct in guessing that the output voltage for lighting is 12 volts??

The functions are open collector "outputs", i.e. they connect to ground when activated.
Positive is common, so whatever you supply as the common is the voltage...
Just like all other decoders. Pay SPECIAL attention to the amount of current the normal "outputs" can take, it is NOT very high!
Hopefully you read my page on this, at least the introductory one... (read LIMITATIONS)

Good point Jimmy, weird site that makes you register to download manuals, and they don't make that obvious..
Still, a number of things are missing from the manuals.

Yes gaps in the manuals available and gaps in the manuals themselves.
