The LokPilot 5 micro DCC DCC Direct and the LokPilot 5 nano DCC
are the “little brothers” of the LokSound 5 micro DCC Direct and the
LokSound 5 nano DCC. These non-sound Decoders share the same
dimensions and functions with the LokSound decoders, but without
sound.
These decoders are used wherever the sound is to be dispensed with,
but all other properties are to be the same. This applies in particular
to the motor control and to enable Consist Operation together with
LokSound 5 decoders.
Operating modes
The LokPilot 5 micro DCC DCC Direct and the LokPilot 5 nano DCC
are “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 Rail¬ComPlus®, the decoders log on to a suitable DCC System fully
automatically.
They master all DCC programming command stations. Auxiliary registers exist for DCC systems that can only program CVs from 1-255.
The LokPilot 5 micro DCC DCC Direct and the LokPilot 5 nano DCC
decoder recognizing the Märklin® braking sections as well as ZIMO®
HLU / ZACK commands or the Lenz® ABC system. Braking with DCC
brake modules or with DC voltage is also possible. They also stop with
a Selectrix® brake diode. An ABC automatic shuttle train enables automatic commuting between two stations.
They can be used on analog DC trains. The maximum speed can be set
separately. The decoder switches
Motor control
The motor control of the LokPilot 5 micro DCC DCC Direct and the
LokPilot 5 nano DCC has been fundamentally improved again. A variable adjustable PWM clock frequency from 10kHz to 50kHz ensures
super quiet operation ,especially with bell-armature motors- The typical “hum” is a thing of the past. The load control now has up to 10
CVs which can be adjusted for difficult cases. The unique “Autotune”
function enables the automatic calibration of the decoder to the motor. The LokPilot 5 DCC decoder delivers up to .75A of motor current.
Enough juice for most motors.
Functions
The LokPilot 5 micro DCC Direct decoders have up to 10 directly soldered LEDs. Two of them are intended for front and rear head lighting,
two more are connected to the AUX3 and AUX4 outputs to switch e.g.
number boards. A further 6 LEDs on the bottom are intended for ditch
lights, but can also be used for other lighting purposes on request.
All important lighting functions are available. The brightness of each
output can be set separately.
Despite its small size, the LokPilot 5 Nano DCC has 8 powered function
outputs as well as 5 logic level outputs on the new, extremely small
ESU E24 interface. All important lighting functions are available. The
brightness of each output can be set separately.
Protection
Of course, the motor output and the function outputs are against
overload protected. We want you to enjoy your decoder for as long
as possible.
Operation reliability
A PowerPack to bypass dirty track can be fitted to the LokPilot 5 Nano
DCC (NOT to the LokPilot 5 micro DCC Direct!).
Designed with future developments in mind
The LokPilot Nano Standard is update capable and can get is new firmware with the aid of the ESU LokProgrammer. Thus your decoder will always have current state-of-the-art technology!
