Setting the motor control
SILVER decoders are equipped with a control (load
compensation). A set speed is thus held constant (so far as
technically possible) independent of larger or smaller loads.
Since the different models are equipped with different motor
types, the characteristic can be adjusted to the control.
6.1
Selecting the motor type
In order to also facilitate this adjustment for model railway
operators who are not control engineering experts, we have
combined different settings to so-called "motor types". It is thus
possible to select between different types without having to pay
attention to the precise setting of the control parameters.
If the control behaviour of the standard setting (motor type 0) is
not ideal for your model, simply try a different motor type. Motor
types 0 to 3 have set control parameters.
The motor type is set in CV50. Ex-works, CV50 is set to 0, i.e.
motor type 0. If you wish to select a motor type 0 to 5, enter the
respective value 0 to 5 in CV50.
Motor types 4 and 5 provide for 2 further CVs which make fine-
tuning possible.
Advice on how to proceed:
First, set the motor types 0 to 3 one after the other and check
the result. If you are unhappy with the result, try motor type 4.
Then alter the value in CV113 and CV114 until you achieve the
desired result. Never alter the motor type and the value in
CV113 and CV114 simultaneously!
