Description
ESU 59741 LokPilot 5 Micro Direct NMRA DCC Decoder - N Drop-in Board for Kato Narrow Hood type
The LokPilot 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA has been specially developed for installation in track N vehicles of the Kato USA brand: Most diesel locomotives of this manufacturer are installed in the American model of these decoders instead of the analog board installed as standard. Finally, these models can also be easily retrofitted with a LokPilot decoder.
The LokPilot 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA with its dimensions of 60.0mm x 10.1mm is a pure DCC decoder.
Modes
The LokPilot 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA 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 log in fully to 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 LokPilot 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA Decoder detects the Märklin® brake distances as well as ZIMO® HLU / ZACK commands or the Lenz® ABC system. Braking with DCC brake blocks or dc voltage is also possible. In addition, it also stops with a Selectrix® brake diode. An AUTOMATIC ABC commuter train allows automatic commuting between two stations.
The LokPilot 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA 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.
Functions
Despite its compact dimensions, the LokPilot 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA is equipped with an enormous number of function outputs. Two directly soldered SMD LEDs are designed for front and rear front and rear head lighting. For older models, two wired LEDs can alternatively be soldered and switched separately. Three further reinforced function outputs are also available. All important lighting functions are available. The brightness of each output can be set separately.
Motor
The motor control of the LokPilot 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA 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 LokPilot 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA decoder delivers up to 0.9A motor power.
Operational reliability
A PowerPack can be connected to the LokPilot 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA on request to bridge dirty rail sections.
Protection
Of course, the outputs are protected against overload. We want you to enjoy your decoder for as long as possible.
