Product Features and Details
We present to you at this point the most recent branch of the LokPilot V4.0 family. This LokPilot is a real quad-protocol decoder and speaks DCC with RailComPlus® well as Motorola, Selectrix and now M4. In order for this decoder is the first choice for all Märklin friends who do not want to give up mfx® compatibility. LokPilot V4.0 M4 decoders are offered with all standard interfaces including PluX16.
Modes
The LokPilot V4.0 M4 dominates the data format DCC as well as Motorola, Selectrix and M4. In DCC format 14-128 speed steps are as natural as 2- and 4-digit addresses and up to 28 functions. Thanks RailComPlus® the decoder at a suitable command station report fully automatically. It dominates all DCC programming modes and can be used with compatible digital panels driven and programmed both: Thanks RailCom® with matching central readout of CV values on the main track possible. For centers that can only program the CVs 1-255 auxiliary registers exist. Motorola® users benefit from up to 28 speed steps at 255 addresses. Three other Motorola® addresses allow the release of 16 functions. A built-in programming mode also makes the venerable 6021 Control Unit reprogramming possible. The M4 protocol allows automatic logon to mfx® compatible stations (eg Märklin® Central station or mobile station). At these centers, a reprogramming is possible, just as you are there decoders from the original Märklin® usual. The LokPilot V4.0 M4 decoder recognizes the Märklin® braking sections as well as Zimo® HLU commands, or braking Lenz® ABC system. Even braking with DCC brake blocks or with DC voltage is possible. In addition, he also holds at a Selectrix® braking diode on. The LokPilot M4 decoder 4.0 can be used on analogue DC and AC current paths. The decoder switches between modes automatically "on-the-fly" to. Most nothing needs to be adjusted.
Motor Control
The LokPilot V4.0 M4 decoder is equipped with an engine controller of the fifth generation. With the help of 5 parameters, the load control can be either adjusted manually to the model, or the decoder measures by "Auto-Tune" the motor characteristics in a test run and automatically adjusts itself to fit. Never Adjustment engines was easier. ESU decoder control all types of engines, whether Märklin® engines Fleischmann round motors or coreless motors (eg Faulhaber) or means motors with a flywheel (s). With Dynamic Drive Control (DDC) you can limit the influence of load control and can sensitively regulate, while the loco slows down prototypically when driving uphill in the station area. SoftDrive® Sinus motors, as they are used in many Märklin® models can also be driven by the LokPilot V4.0 decoder. Thanks SUSI works this with Trix® locomotives.
Features
The LokPilot V4.0 M4 decoder has at least four function outputs, PluX16 version even six. In addition, (at 21MTC) two unamplified outputs are available, which in conjunction with matching adapter boards (eg ESU 51968) can also be used for the control of lighting and special functions. All important light functions exist. The brightness of each output can be set separately. The decoder controls the automatic check-in and move away when uncoupled for ROCO®, Krois® and Telex® couplings.
Operational safety
At the LokPilot V4.0 M4 You can like all other ESU decoders of the 4th generation on demand is a PowerPack connect (ESU No. 54670, see "Accessories").
Protection
Of course, all function outputs and the motor output overload protected.
