ESU 59810 - LokPilot 5 micro DCC/MM/SX, 8-pin NEM652, Retail, Gauge N, TT
Technical details
The LokPilot 5 micro is the smallest digital decoder from ESU to date. Thanks to the use of subminiature components, 8-layer circuit boards and state-of-the-art manufacturing technology, at just 8.0mm x 7.0mm and a thickness of just 2.4mm (on the capacitor: 2.9mm), it is so small that it can be used even in very small locomotives Nominal sizes Z, N or TT can be accommodated. Nevertheless, functionality and robustness have not been compromised compared to the larger versions.
LokPilot 5 micro decoders are offered with all common interfaces. The variants with Next18 or PluX16 interface are slightly larger with a base area of 13.0mm x 9.2mm, but they also have the mfx®-compatible M4 protocol.
Operating modes
The LokPilot 5 micro is a true multi-protocol decoder. It supports the DCC data format as well as Motorola®, Selectrix® and M4. In the DCC format, 14 to 128 speed levels are as standard as 2 and 4-digit addresses and up to 32 functions. Thanks to RailComPlus®, the decoders log on to a suitable digital control center fully automatically.
It controls all DCC programming modes and thanks to RailCom®, the CV values on the main track can be read out with suitable control centers. There are auxiliary registers for control panels that can only program CVs from 1-255.
Motorola® users benefit from up to 28 speed levels with 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 Next18 and PluX16 variants also allow automatic registration to mfx®-compatible control panels thanks to the M4 protocol. All 32 possible function keys are offered.
The LokPilot 5 micro decoder recognizes the Märklin® braking distances as well as ZIMO® HLU / ZACK commands or the Lenz® ABC system. Braking with DCC brake modules or with direct voltage 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 LokPilot 5 decoder can be used on analogue DC railways. The variants with Next18 or PluX16 can also be used on analog AC systems. The maximum speed can be set separately.
The decoder switches between the operating modes fully automatically “on-the-fly”. Most of the time nothing needs to be adjusted.
Functions
We know that you want your locomotives to be as realistic as possible. We have therefore equipped the LokPilot 5 micro with an astonishing number of function outputs. The variants with 6-pin or 8-pin wiring harness offer 4 amplified function outputs, each with 180mA output current, as well as two logic level outputs for servos or Susi. The versions with Next18 or PluX16 interface have a total of 6 amplified outputs and two logic level outputs. All important lighting functions are available. The brightness of each output can be adjusted separately. The decoder masters the automatic pressing and releasing when uncoupling for ROCO®, Krois® and Telex® couplings.
Motor control
The motor control of the LokPilot 5 micro has been fundamentally improved again. A variably adjustable PWM clock frequency from 10kHz to 50kHz ensures super-quiet operation, especially with bell-armature motors - the typical “humming” is a thing of the past. The load control can now be adapted to difficult cases with up to 10 CVs. The unique “Autotune” function enables the decoder to be automatically calibrated to the motor. With up to 0.75A motor current, the LokPilot 5 micro decoder provides enough juice for the intended application scenarios.
Operational safety
If desired, a PowerPack can be connected to the LokPilot 5 micro to bridge dirty rail sections
Protection
Of course, the motor output and the function outputs are protected against overload. We want you to enjoy your decoder for as long as possible.
