Finally, these models can easily be retrofitted with a LokSound decoder.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"bodytext\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe 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 speakers.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOperating modes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"bodytext\"\u003eThe LokSound 5 micro DCC Direct Kato Japan is a “pure” DCC decoder. 14 to 128 speed steps are just as natural as 2 and 4-digit addresses. Up to 32 functions can be triggered. Thanks to RailComPlus®, the decoders register fully automatically with a suitable digital command station.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"bodytext\"\u003eIt masters all DCC programming modes and thanks to RailCom®, the CV values on the main track can be read out with the appropriate central units. Auxiliary registers exist for command stations that can only program CVs from 1-255.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"bodytext\"\u003eThe LokSound 5 micro DCC Direct Kato Japan decoder recognizes the Märklin® braking sections as well as ZIMO® HLU \/ ZACK commands or the Lenz® ABC system. Braking with DCC braking modules or with direct current is also possible. In addition, it also stops with a Selectrix® brake diode. An ABC automatic shuttle train enables automatic commuting between two stations. The LokSound 5 micro DCC Direct Kato Japan can be used on analog DC railways.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"bodytext\"\u003eThe decoder switches between the operating modes fully automatically “on-the-fly”.

The load control can also be adapted to difficult cases with up to 10 CVs. The unique “Autotune” function enables the decoder to be automatically calibrated to the motor. The LokSound 5 micro DCC Direct Kato Japan decoder delivers up to 0.75A motor current.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProtection\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"bodytext\"\u003eThe outputs are protected against overload.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ESU","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50437961842984,"sku":null,"price":177.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0682\/8585\/8088\/files\/58731-LokSound-5-micro-DCC-Direct-Kato-JAPAN-empty-decoder.jpg?v=1753350345","url":"https:\/\/eurohobbytrains.com.au\/products\/esu-loksound-5-dcc-sound-decoder-8-pin-nem-652-item-58420-2","provider":"EURO HOBBY TRAINS","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
