Digital instructions
Locomotive are fitted with ESU's latest generation LokPilot® decoder version V.5.0. These new
decoders can be used in DCC digital systems.
YOUR BENEFITS:
• Factory preset address for the locomotive is 03.
• 40 khz tact frequency for smooth and silent motor control, 5th generation of load
control.
• The V.5.0 decoder supports DCC.
• 14, 28 or 128 selectable speed steps for DCC systems.
• Improved function mapping: All outputs can be assigned to any function button.
• Function outputs have a throughput of up to 250mA each, all outputs together 500mA.
• ABC braking mode: Stop in front of the signal.
DECODER PARAMETERS ADJUSTING:
The LokPilot V.5.0 decoder controls several parameters. You can find a list of the most
important ones at the end of this instructions. Each parameter (CV) can be configured
independently using its respective command.
When programming using Lenz, Uhlenbrock or Arnold equipment, please
refer to their programing instructions. If the error message "err02" is
displayed during programming with Lenz or Arnold equipment, a 47
Ohmresistor (0.5) Watt or higher) must be inserted between one of the
two supply cables and the programming track.

DCC Systems (Lenz, Intellibox, etc.)
It is much easier to modify the parameters if you have a DCC compatible digital system or
an Intellibox. Please, read the corresponding chapter in your system manual (DCC decoders
programming). The V.5.0 LokPilot decoder support any NMRA programming system.
ANALOG OPERATION
When using conventional transformer, the locomotive movement will be similar to that of
a locomotive without a decoder. The locomotive will only start its running when receiving
a minimum voltage between 5.5 and 6 volts, as the decoder will not work with a lower
tension.
Please note the following warnings:
Always disconnect the decoder from the power supply before doing any work on it.
The reset function is very convenient, as you can set the original factory values again at any
time. To use this function, type "8" in CV 8 or "08" in register "08".
