The LokSound
5 micro DCC Direct Kato Japan has been specially developed
for installation in Kato-branded track N vehicles: in many
European and Japanese locomotives of this manufacturer, the
ser decoder can be installed directly below the engine instead
of the analog board installed as standard. Finally, these
models can also be easily retrofitted with a LokSound decoder.
The LokSound
5 micro DCC Direct Kato Japan with its dimensions of 27.6mm
x 14.1mm x 3mm is a pure DCC decoder and comes without a loudspeaker.
Modes
The LokSound
5 micro DCC Direct Kato Japan 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 LokSound
5 micro DCC Direct Kato Japan 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 LokSound
5 micro DCC Direct Kato Japan 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 micro DCC Direct Kato Japan 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 its 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 can 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
Although
the LokSound 5 micro DCC Direct Kato Japan is normally installed
in the motor car of a drive car set, three reinforced function
outputs for lighting are available at their own discretion.
All important lighting functions are available. The brightness
of each output can be set separately.
Motor
The motor
control of the LokSound 5 micro DCC Direct Kato Japan has
a variable PWM clock frequency from 10kHz to 50kHz, which
ensures a super-quiet drive, 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 micro DCC Direct Kato Japan Decoder delivers
up to 0.9A motor power.
Protection
Of course,
the outputs are protected against overload. We want you to
enjoy your decoder for as long as possible.
