Need a sound file loaded? Contact us for details Want to buy your own Lokprogrammer? Search item 53452 in our store. See photos for more information. Some photos show other ESU decoders, this listing is for the Loksound 5 DCC #58429. Speakers are not included with the Loksound 5 DCC decoders - we have a great selection in our eBay store from multiple manufacturers. “Full Throttle” Decoder Operation for Diesels It is often challenging to make a scale model perform like it has the mass of a 260,000lb locomotive pulling 5,000 tons or more! Some of this can be done with BEMF - when the loco “feels” a load, it will automatically rev up to work harder to pull this actual load. But this is often a flawed method in modeling. Today, model train car wheels are so free rolling the cars often do not simulate sufficient drag to replicate a typical prototype situation. Also, often we do not sufficiently weigh our cars to represent a scaled-down version of the prototype. One of the biggest problems with BEMF controlled load is in our modeling and operations we often “simulate” loads inside a closed car. The payload inside a prototype car can weigh as much as 100-tons more than the car itself. This is especially important at operating sessions. Empties in and Loads out or vice versa. There is no way for a decoder to know the proposed weight of the cars it is pulling. Our “car cards”, showing whether a car is loaded or empty, are seen only by the operator, not by our decoders! To compensate for what the decoder cannot know, ESU created Full Throttle decoder features! FT features include “Drive Hold”, “Run 8”, “Coast”, improved “Dynamic Brakes” and a new “Independent Brake” feature. 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 vehicles. Functions Subject to the type of interface, every LokSound V5 has at least 10 amplified outputs with multiple lighting functions available. The brightness of each output may be adjusted separately. Motor control The LokSound V5 DCC decoder supplies up to 1.5A 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. __________________________________________________________________
