user manual LokPilot V2.0 / LokPilot DCC V2.0 01/2005
• Improved function mapping: All outputs can be
assigned to any function button
• Lighting effects: Strobe, Double Strobe, Mars- und
Gyro light, Firebox, Blinker, Flash.
• 2 directional outputs for headlights for up to 180
mA each
• 2 auxiliary outputs (F1 und F2), for up to 180 mA
each
• Maximum total current of all 4 outputs: 350 mA
•Adjustable acceleration and maximum speed even
in analogue mode
• Motor output: maximum 1.1 A, over current guard
• Total maximum load of decoder: 1.2 Amps
•Dimensions: 23 x 15.5 x 6.5 mm
• Designed for the future due to possible firmware
upgrade with flash-memory
Additional features of LokPilot V2.0:
• Suitable for analogue AV layouts
• Supports Motorola-format (old and new)
• Programming mode for Märklin 6021 (for the most
important functions)
Important note:
• The LokPilot V2.0 and LokPilotDCC decoders are
designed for use in model railways only
• Avoid mechanical force and impact on the
decoder
• Do not expose to wet and humid conditions
• Do not remove the heat shrink sleeve around the
decoder
• Never solder on the circuit board, extend cables
if necessary
• Never wrap the decoder in insulation tape, since
this may cause overheating
• Always disconnect the circuit when installing the
decoder
• Make sure that no blank wire ends come into
contact with any metal parts of the locomotive
• Make sure that no wires are squeezed or cut by
the model’s transmission parts when reassembling
the locomotive.
General Features:
LokPilot V2.0 is the successor of the popular LokPilot
decoder. It enhances the already outstanding
properties with more features with the objective, to
improve running characteristics even more, to increase
reliability and flexibility.
LokPilot V2.0 is available in two types:
LokPilot V2.0 is a multi-protocol-decoder. It supports
Märklin / Motorola as well as the widely used DCC
system. It can also be used in analogue layouts with
AC or DC supply. Thus it is the ideal decoder even for
layouts with combined Motorola / DCC controls.
LokPilotDCC V2.0 is „thoroughbred“ DCC Decoder. It
provides all functions of LokPilot V2.0, except for the
Motorola-protocol and can also be used in analogue
mode (DC only).
Both decoders are the premier choice for the
demanding model train enthusiasts who insist on
excellent load control – particularly at low speeds –
and maximum flexibility in terms of adapting the
decoder to the model engine. LokPilot V2.0 detects
the operating mode automatically and can control
DC motors, coreless motors (e.g.: Faulhaber) or uni-
versal motors with HAMO-magnets. Due to its unique
features LokPilot V2.0 offers great flexibility and
reliability, as you have come to expect it from a top
quality decoder. Even future updates are no problem
for LokPilot V2.0: Due to its flash memory technology
it can be updated to the latest version at any time.
Properties of LokPilotDCC V2.0:
• Fully operational on analogue DC layouts
•Fully automatic change of operating mode (auto-
detect)
• 4
th
generation load control: to be adapted to motor
characteristics with three CVs
•40 kHz tact frequency for smooth and silent motor
control
• Supports Lenz Brake sections
• 14, 28 and 128 speed steps in DCC-mode
• Automatic detection of speed step setting inmost
DCC-systems
• 2- or 4-digit address
• Fully compatible with NMRA-standards
• Shunting speed
• Acceleration and deceleration can be switched off
• Advanced Consisting
• Freely selectable speed curve
