Up to 32 functions can be triggered. Thanks to RailComPlus®, the decoder registers fully with a compatible digital command station. It supports all DCC programming modes, and thanks to RailCom®, CV values can be read from the main track using compatible command stations. Additional registers are available for command stations that can only program CVs 1–255.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eThe LokPilot 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA decoder recognizes Märklin® braking sections as well as ZIMO® HLU\/ZACK commands and the Lenz® ABC system. Braking with DCC brake blocks or DC voltage is also possible. It also features a Selectrix® brake diode for stopping.

Two directly soldered SMD LEDs provide front and rear lighting. For older models, two 3mm LEDs (each with a resistor) can be soldered on and controlled separately. Three additional live function outputs (without resistors) are also available. All essential lighting functions are supported, and the brightness of each output is individually adjustable.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eMotor\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"bodytext\"\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eThe LokPilot 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA motor controller features a variable PWM clock frequency from 10 kHz to 50 kHz, ensuring whisper-quiet operation, especially with coreless motors – the typical hum is a thing of the past.
