The LokPilot 5 Fx is a function decoder without motor output and therefore perfect for installation in control cars or function models. Because it talks DCC with RailCom as well as Motorola and Selectrix, it can be used with all common digital centers. He shares his flexible radio-onskey assignment and the manifold lighting effects with the other LokPilot 5 decoders from ESU.
Modes
The LokPilot 5 Fx is a multi-protocol decoder. It masters the DCC data format as well as Motorola and Selectrix. In DCC format, 14-128 driving steps are as natural as 2- and 4-digit addresses. Up to 28 functions can be triggered. Thanks to RailComPlus the de-coders register fully automatically at a suitable digital center (e.g. ECoS).
It masters all DCC programming modes and can be used and programmed with all DCC-compatible digital centers: RailCom also allows the CV values to be read out on the main track with suitable control panels. Auxiliary registers exist for control panels that can only program the CVs from 1-255 (e.g. ROCO multi-mouse).
Motorola users benefit from up to 28 driving steps at 255 addresses. Three additional Motorola addresses enable the triggering of 16 functions. A built-in programming mode also makes reprogramming possible with the venerable Control Unit 6021.
The LokPilot 5 Fx Decoder erkennd ie Marklin-Bremsstrecke n ee eensnso wie ZIMO-HLU/ZACK-Brems- commands or the Lenz ABC system. Braking with DCC brake blocks or with equal voltage is also possible. In addition, it also "stops" with a Selectrix brake diode.An AUTOMATIC ABC commuter train allows automatic commuting between two stations. Although this decoder does not have an engine output, this is also important with a function decoder in order to be able to synchronize control cars and motor cars.
The LokPilot 5 FX decoder can be used on analog DC and AC webs.The decoder switches "on-the-fly" fully automatically between operating modes. Most of the time, nothing needs to be adjusted.
Functions
The LokPilot 5 Fx has been equipped with an astonishing number of function outputs. Depending on the cutting version, each LokPilot 5 Fx decoder offers at least 10 reinforced function outputs with 250mA output current each. In the versions with PluX22 or 21MTC interface, 4 outputs for controlling servos or logic level outputs are added. All important lighting functions are available. The brightness of each output can be set separately.
Interaction
The LokPilot 5 Fx is designed for an interaction with the LokSound 5 and the LokPilot 5 decoders: for example, it is possible to equip the locomotive of a multiple unit with a LokSound 5 decoder and the control car with a LokPilot 5 Fx. Provided the same address, both behave absolutely identically. The identical arrangement of the CVs facilitates the tuning of the two decoders.
