The LokSound 5 is the most important member of the LokSound family. Due to the combination of the digital decoder and the sound module on one circuit board we achieve the smallest possible dimensions of 30 mm x 15.5 mm. Therefore it fits into almost any H0 or 0 gauge locomotive.
\nLokSound 5 decoders are available with all popular interface types and are supplied with a sugar cube speaker (11 mm x 15 mm) and a sound enclosure.
\nOperating modes
\nLike all products of the LokSound family the LokSound 5 is a true multi protocol decoder. It supports DCC as well as Motorola\u00ae, Selectrix\u00ae and M4. Of course it supports 14 through to 128 speed steps as well as 2 and 4 digit addresses in DCC format and up to 32 functions. Thanks to RailComPlus\u00ae the decoders register themselves fully automatically on suitable command stations.
\nThis decoder supports all DCC programming modes and thanks to RailCom\u00ae you may read out the CV values on the main, provided you have a command station supporting RailCom\u00ae. There are utility registers for command stations that only facilitate programming of CVs ranging from 1 to 255.
\nMotorola\u00ae users benefit from up to 28 speed steps for 255 addresses. Three additional Motorola\u00ae addresses facilitate triggering of 16 functions. An integral programming mode even allows programming with the good old Central Unit 6021.
\nThe M4 protocol supports the automatic registration on mfx\u00ae compatible central units.
\nThe LokSound 5 decoder supports the M\u00e4rklin\u00ae braking sections just as well as the ZIMO\u00ae HLU braking commands or the Lenz\u00ae ABC system. Braking with DCC brake generators or with DC is also possible. Furthermore the locomotive with a LokSound will come to a halt when a Selectrix\u00ae braking diode is switched into the circuit. The ABC push-pull feature enables the automatic commuting between two stations.
\nThe LokSound 5 decoder is also suitable for analogue DC and AC (!) layouts.
\nSound
\nThe LokSound 5 decoder can reproduce up to 10 channels simultaneously. Each channel offers up to 16 Bit \/ 31250 kHz and thus we have finally achieved hi-fi sound quality on your layout. For all practical purposes one cannot detect any difference to the original. A class D audio power amplifier with up to 3W output power feeds the speakers with a permitted impedance of 4 \u2013 32 Ohms. The huge 128 MBit sound memory assures sufficient storage capacity.
\nThe volume of all individual sound fragments may be adjusted separately. The outstandingly flexible sound engine without a rigid flow chart facilitates a prototypical simulation of all conceivable rail vehicles. Three separately adjustable braking functions and two alternative load scenarios provide you with maximum control of your vehicles.
\nFunctions
\nWe are quite aware that you want your locomotives to be as realistic as possible. Therefore we have packed many function outputs into it. Subject to the type of interface every LokSound 5 has at least 10 amplified outputs. The decoders with PluX22 or 21MTC interface have an additional 4 outputs for controlling servos or as logic outputs. Of course, all important lighting functions are supported. The brightness of each output may be adjusted separately. The decoder supports the automatic push and pull movements \u2013 known as the coupler waltz – required for reliable operation of digital couplers such as the ones by ROCO\u00ae and Krois\u00ae as well as Telex\u00ae couplers.
\nMotor control
\nMotor control of the LokSound 5 has been further improved. A variable PWM pulse frequency ranging from 10 kHz to 50 kHz assures perfect silent operation, particularly for coreless motors. Thus the typical hum is a thing of the past. Load control can now be adjusted with up to 10 separate CVs and thus will manage even the most difficult cases. The unique \u201cAuto Tune\u201d function facilitates the automatic calibration of the decoder to perfectly match the motor. The LokSound 5 decoder supplies up to 1.5A motor current, which is quite sufficient even for older motor types.<\/p>\n
