If the decoder recognises a dirty spot on the tracks it will automatically reduce its volume to save energy Usually you will barely notice the volume reduction if at all If you use larger capacitors or the PowerPack the volume reduction is however unwelcome Thus the volume reductions only active when value lt 10 is set in CV113 A 11 Motor Control LokSound V4 0 LokSound V4 0 M4 LokSound micro V4 0 LokSound XL V4 0 5th generation load compensation enables LokSound decoders to execute precise motor control Even with the default settings most locomotives run perfectly 11 1 Adjusting Load Compensation Should you find after programming and doing the initial test that the locomotive does not run smoothly particularly at low speed or that the locomotive jerks a little after having stopped or if your are simply unsatisfied with the driving performance then you should adjust the load compensation of your LokSound decoder Due to the large number of different types of motors and drive systems there is no single setting that suits all Load compensation can be influenced with 5 CVs Firstly check if the irregular performance is due to any mechanical faults Bent driving rods are one common cause When you turn off load compensation set CV56 to 0 and the problem persists then it is likely there is a mechanical fault 11 1 1 Parameter for frequently used Motors We have listed the correct settings for the most c

8. Of course an mfx command station always expects two mapping rows per function button This problem is solved due to the fact that the decoder actually simulates two rows per button on the mfx central unit even though there is only one row in reality This happens in a transparent manner The only thing you have to bear in mind when programming a LokSound XL V4 0 decoder with a Marklin mfx central unit e g Central Station 2 that the rows for reversing cannot be changed They are ignored when saving the data If you wish to convert one row subject to direction at a later stage we recom mend to use an ESU ECoS command station in DCC mode or to use the ESU LokProgrammer 12 2 5 2 Example Example Switching AUX3 with F8 Assuming you have a Lok Sound V4 0 decoder and you want to switch AUX 3 with the button F8 subject to direction of travel With the help of the ESU adapter board 51968 you added a light bulb to AUX 3 A glance at the table Standard mapping LokSound V4 0 on page 59 shows that nothing has to be changed in the input block F8 has already been entered in mapping row 14 As per the table in chapter 12 2 2 2 we must set the first CV of the block to 16 in order to activate AUX3 From the overview table on page 53 we determine that this must be CV 474 Index 2 Therefore we first must set CV 32 to value 2 and then CV 474 to the value of 16 For this example to work the AUX3 output must also be switche

Intellibox e Lenz Digital plus V2 3 e ZIMO MX1 When operating with Lenz digital plus V3 0 the auto detect feature does not work at 14 speed steps Select 28 128 speed steps Instead The LokSound tries to establish the speed step setting every time it receives power i e after switching on the power on your layout or the track sector where your locomotive is located and the lights are switched on This process requires that you switch on the lights and turn the throttle until the lights light up continuously Should you change the speed step setting during operation then you must interrupt the power to the decoder for a short moment in order to activate the auto detection This auto detect feature can be turned off with bit 4 in CV 49 also refer to the CV table in chapter 21 1 Then you have to set the correct speed step with bit 5 in CV 29 7 2 2 Motorola mode LokSound V4 0 LokSound micro V4 0 LokSound V4 0 M4 LokSound XL V4 0 The LokSound works with all M rklin devices and compatible systems that are in the market until now The functions F1 to F4 can only be activated with the so called new Motorola for mat In order to activate this you must set the DIP switch 2 on your 6021 to the upper position 0n LokSound decoders support two special features in Motorola mode 7 2 2 1 28 Speed Steps While the original Motorola system used by the following central units namely Marklin cent
