Description
ESU 58914 LokSound 5 Nano NMRA DCC Sound Decoder - E24 Integral Connector to NEM658 PluX16 Integral Connector
ESU decoder ship to us blank (or mute, or no pre-loaded sound file, or...) unlike other decoder options that we offer. The ESU Sound File Library offers hundreds of highly detailed and extremely precise sound options for North American and European prototypes for modelers to choose from. You can also find many OEM-specific Sound File options in the library but please note that some manufacturers choose to maintain their own proprietary files which must be sourced directly from them.
ESU offers the ESU 53452 LokProgrammer Set and ESU 53900 LokTester DCC Decoder Test Station which can be used to load sound files, update decoder firmware, program CV values, test and troubleshoot decoders or installations, and even to create your own custom sound files. Please note, you must use the ESU LokProgrammer to load sound files or update firmware on the ESU LokSound and ESU LokPilot decoders. You can program CV's on any ESU decoder in Service or P.O.M. mode using your ESU ECoS or CabControl Command Station, any NMRA-compliant programming device or software such as JMRI/Decoder Pro.
SBS4DCC will preload any sound file from the ESU Sound Library with the initial purchase of an ESU LokSound Decoder for no additional charge upon request. Please note, SBS4DCC also offers Custom Sound File options but some of these are offered with a surcharge for use. SBS4DCC will pre-load third party OEM and non-OEM files in most circumstances but a processing fee may apply. Please CONTACT US to discuss your specific project or needs.
There are two ways to request that SBS4DCC pre-load a sound file when you purchase an ESU decoder from us.
The preferred way is to enter the Sound File Number (also called the Article Number having the format S0501 or S0851, etc.) in the space above labeled "REQUEST A PRELOADED SOUND FILE (NUMBER OR NAME):". You can enter a prototype model or prime mover type if you are unsure but using the number guarantees you will get the exact file you want.
The second way is enter the same information noted above in the comments field at checkout but those notes will print on the shipping label so best to use the space provided.
As always, CONTACT US with questions.
With the LokSound 5 Nano DCC, ESU has succeeded in developing an even smaller LokSound decoder! Thus, it should really be used in all vehicles of nominal sizes N and TT.
The LokSound 5 Nano DCC with E24 interface has a size of 19.6mm x 8.5mm x 3.2mm.
The LokSound 5 Nano DCC with single wires has a size of 19.6mm x 8.5mm x 5.3mm.
The LokSound 5 Nano DCC with PluX16 interface has a size of von 21mm x 11mm x 6mm.
The LokSound 5 Nano DCC with Next18 interface has a size of 15mm x 9.5mm x 3.5mm.
The LokSound 5 Nano DCC decoder is a pure DCC decoder. The LokSound 5 Nano DCC is made for the North American and Australian markets. It is a pure DCC Decoder, which supports RailComPlus and can also be used on DC layouts. Please note the LokSound 5 Nano DCC decoder does not come with a speaker.
Modes
The LokSound 5 Nano is a "pure-bred" DCC decoder. 14 to 128 driving steps are as self-evident as 2- and 4-digit addresses. Up to 32 functions can be triggered. Thanks to RailComPlus®, the decoders register fully automatically at a suitable digital center.It masters all DCC programming modes and thanks to RailCom® the CV values can be read out on the main track with suitable control panels. Auxiliary registers exist for control panels that can only program the CVs from 1-255.
The LokSound 5 Nano Decoder detects the Märklin® brake distances as well as ZIMO® HLU / ZACK commands or the Lenz® ABC system. Braking with DCC brake blocks or with equal voltage is also possible. In addition, it also stops with a Selectrix® brake diode. An automatic ABC pen train allows automatic commuting between two stations.
The LokSound 5 Nano can be used on analog DC webs. The decoder switches "on-the-fly" fully automatically between operating modes. Most of the time, nothing needs to be adjusted.
Sound
The LokSound 5 Nano Decoder can play up to 12 channels simultaneously. Each channel can be resolved with up to 16 bits / 31250 kHz and offers hi-fi quality on your system. There is virtually no difference to the original audible anymore. A Class-D audio output with up to 3W output power controls the speakers, which may have between 4 ohms and 32 ohms impedance. A 128 Mbit sound memory provides enough capacity.All individual noises can be adjusted individually in the volume. The super-flexible sound engine without a rigid schedule allows the exemplary simulation of all conceivable rail tracks.
Functions
Despite its small size, the LokSound 5 Nano has 6 reinforced function outputs as well as a logic level output as a solder pad. All important lighting functions are available. The brightness of each output can be set separately. The decoder controls the automatic start-up and disconnection when uncoupling for ROCO®, Krois® and Märklin telex ® couplings.
Motor
The motor control of the LokSound 5 Nano has a variable PWM clock frequency from 10kHz to 50kHz, which ensures super-quiet operation, especially for bell anchor motors – the typical "hum" is a thing of the past. The load control can be adapted to difficult cases with up to 10 CVs. The unique "Autotune" function allows the decoder to be automatically measured against the motor. The LokSound 5 Nano DCC Direct Decoder delivers up to 0.75A motor power.
Protection
Of course, the outputs are protected against overload. We want you to enjoy your decoder for as long as possible.
