ESU 58820 - LokSound V5 DCC Micro 8-Pin Sound Decoder

LokSound V5 DCC Micro 8-Pin Sound Decoder (SPEAKER AND ENCLOSURE SOLD SEPARATELY!) Note - If you want sound installed it the decoder, write the sound file number or the locomotive you are putting it into, in the customer comments section at the check out. For Gauge: N, HO, & HOn3 21mm x 10mm (0.827 x 0.394 inch) The LokSound 5 DCC Micro has an NMRA 8-pin Plug [via adapter Next18 to 8-Pin Plug] and can be plugged into a circuit board with an NMRA 8 pin female receptacle. With a footprint of 21mm x 10 mm it is one of the smallest full-featured sound decoders available. The V5 DCC Micro is also suitable for H0 locomotives where space is an issue. LokSound V5 DCC Micro decoders are equipped with a Next18 interface and are available with adapter plugs to suit all popular digital interface types. Consult your locomotive manual to determine the appropriate type of decoder. Operating Modes: The V5 decoder supports all DCC programming modes! There are utility registers for command stations that only facilitate programming of CVs ranging from 1 to 255. The LokSound 5 decoder supports the Märklin® braking sections, ZIMO® HLU braking commands or the Lenz® ABC system. Braking with DCC brake generators or with DC is also possible. The locomotive with a LokSound 5 decoder will also come to a halt when a Selectrix® braking diode is switched into the circuit. The ABC push-pull feature enables the automatic commuting between two stations. The LokSound 5 decoder is suitable for analog DC operation, AC and DCC command control. Sound: The LokSound V5 decoder can reproduce up to 10 channels simultaneously. Each channel offers up to 16 Bit / 31250 kHz and for all practical purposes, one cannot detect any difference to the original. A dual class D audio power amplifier with 3W output power feeds the speakers with a permitted impedance of 4 – 32 Ohms. The huge 128 MBit sound memory assures sufficient storage capacity. The volume of all individual sound fragments may be adjusted separately. The outstandingly flexible sound engine without a rigid flow chart facilitates a prototypical simulation of all conceivable rail movements. Three separately adjustable braking functions and two alternative load scenarios provide you with maximum control of your locomotives. Functions: Subject to the type of interface, every LokSound V5 Micro has at least 6 amplified outputs as well as one logic output with multiple lighting functions available. The brightness of each output may be adjusted separately. Motor control: The LokSound V5 Micro decoder supplies up to 0.75A motor current and motor control has been improved. A variable PWM pulse frequency ranging from 10 kHz to 50 kHz results in silent operation, particularly for coreless motors making motor hum a thing of the past. Load control can now be adjusted with up to 10 separate CVs and will manage even the most difficult motor control issues. The unique Auto-Tune function facilitates the automatic calibration of the decoder to perfectly match the motor.
