Atlas Model Railroad Co., Inc.

 

 

The LE063XF DCC decoder is designed to fit a number of Atlas N scale 

locomotives,  including  the  B23-7,  B30-7,  B36-7,  C628,  C630,  Dash  8-

32BW, Dash 8-40B, Dash 8-40BW, GP-38, DCC-ready GP-40, GP-40-2, 

DCC-ready  SD-7,  DCC-ready  SD-9,  SD-35,  Train  Master,  and  U25B 

locomotives.  The characteristics of this decoder are: 

 

Provides 0.5 amperes continuous motor current. 

 

Provides  two  on/off  function  outputs  that  can  be  configured  either  for 

directional lighting or for full Rule 17 lighting. 

 

Provides control of headlight dimming (by setting a CV). 

 

Supports both short (2-digit) and long (4-digit) addressing  

 

Supports  advanced  consist  control  (lashing  up  locomotives  that  have 

different DCC addresses) 

 

Operates  on  conventional  DC  layouts;  this  feature  may  be  disabled  by 

setting a CV. 

 

Provides  full  support  for  all  forms  of  programming  that  are  described  in 

NMRA RP-9.2.3. 

 

 Supports  both  short  form  instructions  and  long  form  instructions  in 

operations mode programming (programming on the main line)  

 

Can be set for operation with 14/27 speed-steps, 28/55 speed-steps, or 128 

speed-steps with direct drive. 

 

Has a rich set of properties, which can be set by the user to customize the 

decoder to a particular locomotive.
