Operation overview
The decoder is designed for operation in Motorola I or II format and can
be adjusted to one of 255 adresses. It evaluates the digital data sent by
the central unit to its address and transmitts it to the locomotive.
Function speed level and direction of motion
The speed level set at the central unit and the change-direction
command are transmitted to the locomotive by the decoder. At a
direction change command, the current direction of travel is saved.
Velocity characteristics
By adjusting the starting and the maximum velocity an individual
velocity characteristic can be programmed via the central unit. The
adjustments set the actual motor voltage of the locomotive. The motor
voltage has an immediate effect on the driving speed of the locomotive
at a chosen speed level during the operation.
The operating voltage of the locomotive motor at speed level 1 is set by
adjusting the starting velocity. Normally the motor voltage is adjusted
so that the locomotive just starts to run at speed level 1.
The operating voltage of the locomotive motor at speed level 14 is set
by adjusting the maximum velocity. The adjustment should be such that
the locomotive reaches the desired maximum speed at speed level 14.
The operating voltages of the locomotive motor at speed levels 2 to 13
are linearly interpolated.
Acceleration and brake delay
14 different steps are available for the acceleration and brake delay.
The acceleration and brake delay can be switched off via the auxiliary
function F3.
Function lighting
The lighting can be switched on and off according to the direction of
travel from the central unit via the function "function".
