The LokPilot 5
DCC is the "twin brother" of the LokPilot 5.
The two share almost all characteristics,
however, the LokPilot 5 DCC is a pure DCC
decoder and cannot be used on analog AC
systems. This lack of flexibility comes with
a cheaper price.
LokPilot 5
decoders are offered with all common
interfaces.
Modes
The LokPilot 5
DCC is a "pure-bred" DCC decoder. 14 to 128
speed steps are as natural as 2- and 4-digit
addresses. Up to 32 functions can be
triggered. Thanks to RailComPlus® the
decoders register automatically with a
suitable DCC system like the ESU CabControl.
The decoder
accepts all DCC programming modes and thanks
to RailCom® the CV values can be read on
the main track with RailCom equipped DCC
systems. For command stations that only
program the CVs from 1-255 auxiliary CV
registers exist.
The LokPilot 5
DCC decoder recognizes the Märklin® braking
sections as well as the ZIMO® HLU /
ZACKCommands or the Lenz® ABC system. Also
braking with DCC brake modules or with DC
voltageis possible. It also stops with a
Selectrix® brake diode. An ABC automatic
shuttle trainenables automatic commuting
between two train stations.
The LokPilot 5
DCC decoder can be used on analog DC trains.
The top speedcan be set separately.
The decoder
switches between the operating modes fully
automatically "on-the-fly".
Features
We know that you
want your locomotives to be as realistic as
possible. Therefore we have the LokPilot
5DCC packed with function outputs. Depending
on the interface version, each LokPilot
offers 5 DCCDecoder at least 10 amplified
function outputs with 250mA output current
each. In the executionswith PluX22 or 21MTC
interface there are 4 outputs to control
servos orLogic level outputs added.
All-important lighting functions are
available. The brightness of each outputcan
be set separately. The decoder masters
automatic pushing and pullingwhen uncoupling
for ROCO®, Krois® and Telex® couplings.
Motor control
The engine
control of the LokPilot 5 DCC has been
fundamentally improved again. A variably
adjustablePWM clock frequency from 10kHz to
50kHz ensures super quiet operation,
especially with bell-armature
motors.Operation - The typical “hum” is a
thing of the past. The load control now has
up to10 CVs which can be adjusted for
difficult cases. The unique "Autotune"
function enablesthe automatic calibration of
the decoder to the motor. The LokPilot 5 DCC
decoder delivers up to 1.5A of motor
current. Enough juice even for older motors.
Operational
safety
On request, a
PowerPack can be fitted to the LokPilot 5
DCC to bridge dirty rail sections.
Protection
Of course, all
function outputs and the motor output are
protected against overload.
We want you to
enjoy your decoder for as long as possible.
