Note: The light function depends on the selected speed step setting. In case the setting in CV29 is not
identical to the setting of the digital control system, the lights may flicker or may not work at all. (Irrelevant
when using 128 speed steps).
2.6. Installation
The decoder MUST NOT touch any metallic constructional elements. This may lead to short circuits and to the
destruction of the decoder subsequently.
3. Advanced Settings
3.1. MASSOTH Bus Interface
The MASSOTH bus interface connects to components with special digital control functions, e.g. the MASSOTH
Pulse Smoke Generator.
3.2. Function Outputs
The eMOTION XXL Decoder is fitted with 6 function outputs. All light outputs are set to 24Volts as default. This
means, at 24Volts track voltage the function outputs A1 to A6 deliver 24Volts, if activated. The output voltage
as well as the function of the light and function outputs may be set by programming (function key allocation,
direction sensitivity, flashing function and short-term function). See the CV list for further details. The outputs
may be controlled by NMRA-DCC commands as well as with serial LGB
®
pulse chain commands. The light
outputs and the function outputs A1 to A4 are dimmable.
3.3.1. Serial Pulse Chain for LGB
®
- Interface
The factory default setting of the eMOTION XXL decoder provides only parallel data processing. Therefor the
decoder may be utilized with all NMRA digital systems. The serial data processing mode may be activated, thus
occurs a brief waiting period of 0.5 secs with F1.
Special settings for serial pulse chain or parallel function data processing:
CV49 = 2 : Parallel function triggering only
CV49 = 3 : Serial and parallel function triggering
CV49 = 11 : Serial pulse chain on F1 for 6pole LGB
®
- Interface with sound module (e.g. P-Updates of LGB
®
-
sound modules).
3.3.2. RC Servo Hook-Up
(Illustr. 5)
The eMOTION XXL decoder is fitted with a special A3 output which is only usable for RC servo operation. This
output could be activated with CV121.
RC servos are especially suited for point-to-point movements (e.g. de-coupler, pantograph) or circular motions.
The RC servo needs a 5Volt regulator additionally and the control commands of the decoder.
The end-positions are defined in CVs. In case the function is switched “ON“, the servo is positioned in one of
the end-positions, in case the function is “OFF“, the servo will travel to the opposite end-position.
In addition the travel speed may be adjusted.
