Description 

Locomotive decoder 73 510 a very small multi-protocol decoder.  It can be operated in DCC, 
Motorola and Selectrix digital systems and also runs in DC analog mode. 
The decoder operates with a frequency of 18.75KHz and is therefore well suited for DC and 
especially for Bell armature motors (e.g. Faulhaber, Maxon, Escap) up to a maximum power 
load of 500mA.  Short burst start up currents are tolerated. 
Motor characteristics can be controlled either by setting the minimum, maximum and middle 
speeds or via various CV’s for individual speed steps. 
Load regulation can be control via regulation parameters to a variety of individual motors. 
The decoder provides two direction dependent lighting outputs.  Using F3 and F4 a shunting 
mode for slow speeds and Start/braking inertia can be activated. 
The decoder can be programmed with the Intellibox, DCC, Märklin and Selectrix controllers and 
Selectrix programming devices.  CV’s can be programmed with all devices. 
In factory default the decoder automatically recognizes DCC and Märklin data formats.  On a 
Selectrix layout the decoder must first its address programmed.  The data format will then be 
automatically be switched to “Selectrix only” (CV49, Bit 4 = 1).  The decoder can then only be 
switch to another data format by DCC programming. 
If the decoder is to be used on a conventional DC layout the operating mode must be set up 
with the configuration variable.  If the decoder set to “analog mode” is placed on to a digital 
layout it will automatically detects the digital signal and switches to digital mode.
