Description
TCS 1552 IMFP4-NF DCC Decoder - N Drop-in Board for Post-2014 InterMountain FP7A with wired motors
The IMFP4-NF is a N-scale drop-in decoder which is designed for InterMountain FPA-unit locomotives. Examples include the following:
InterMountain:
- FP7A
 - FP9A
 
See the installation pages for a full list of compatible engines!
NOTE: This version of the IMFP4 is designed for the newer style InterMountain frame where the motor is connected to the control board via wires instead of the brass feet.
- Back EMF Load Compensation: Provides superior slow speed control and high performance under load.
 - Quiet Drive: Super-quiet motor control for "buzz" free motor performance.
 - DC Mode: Decoder will automatically detect DC power. You can also configure how your lighting effects function on DC.
 - RailCom®: This feature allows the decoder to talk to the command station. RailCom supports expansion for new features.
 - Variable Momentum: Allows you to make custom acceleration and deceleration curves.
 - LED Support: This product does not require external resistors when connecting LED's.
 - Incandescent Bulb Support: This decoder can be used with 12 Volt bulbs.
 - Function Remapping: Buttons 0 through 12 may be used to control the lighting functions of this decoder.
 - Programmable Lighting Effects: Choose from 20 separate user-programmable lighting effects!
 - Dimmable Brightness: Configure multiple different brightness levels for your LED's or incandescent bulbs.
 - Decoder Lock: Feature which prevents accidental/unwanted programming while activated.
 - Airwire™ Compatible: Fully compatible with Airwire™ operation.
 - User-Loadable Speed Tables: Configure custom speed curves and set speed limits.
