7.2.1. DCC operation
then remove all the siding incorporated condensers (eg in ROCO® siding). This
can interfere with operating the decoder.
Operation of the LokSound is possible with any DCC compliant system.
Unfortunately, the DCC protocol also brings some "gotchas" with it, one of which
occurs so often that he must be treated right here at the beginning.
7.2.1.1. DCC speed ( "light flashes")
"Light does not go" with DCC systems: DCC locomotives can be controlled with
14, 28 or 128 steps. The decoder offers all three variants, but must "know" with
which Vari-ante the command station operates the decoder. The digital system
also needs to dominate and also be adjusted to suit the desired mode. If this is
not the case, it can folgen- come the problems:
• The light can not turn with F0.
• The light turns (depending on speed) on and off again and on again, and again
etc. You worry in this case that the setting of decoder and station are the same.
7.2.1.2. Automatic DCC speed detection
LokSound decoders implement to avoid this prob- lem automatic speed step
detection. This has been tested with the following devices:
• ESU ECOS®
• Bachmann EZ-Command® Dynamis®
•
ROCO® Lokmaus2 and Lokmaus3
• Uhlenbrock® Intellibox
•
Lenz® Digital plus V2.3
• Zimo® MX1
• Märklin® Central Station
7. start-up
7.1. Work values on delivery
The factory locomotive address is 03, with 14 speed steps.
F1 switches the sound on / off the pipe F2
/ horn switches
The remaining function keys are assigned differently depending on model. On our
website you will find at any sound applies to a suitable function key assignment.
•
Does the engine in both directions?
• Is the turn signal of the digital system with the actual travel correspond? If not,
the motor connections are either reversed, or 8-pin plug inserted the wrong way
round in the interface.
• Turn on the lights: the lights burning? If you have installed the locomotive sound
in an engine with an 8-pin plug, check whether the plug is properly seated in the
interface.
7.2. Digital Modes
The following sections describe the operation of the LokSound de- coder is
described with different digital systems.
All LokSound decoder 5 in principle support the Nitt in Absc- 5.2.1. Digital
protocols mentioned. Exceptions are the LokSound 5 DCC, DCC and LokSound
5 micro LokSound 5 L DCC decoder, which are intended for the North American
market. This only support the DCC system.
