LokSoundXL User Manual V2.1 05/2002

Analogue / digital operation

After you have checked above points you may switch

on the power. We strongly recommend to carry out

this initial test on a track section with overload

protection. Programming tracks of modern digital

systems offer this protection. Our LokProgrammer

also offers extremely reliable overload protection.

•The pre-set locomotive address is 03.

•Does the locomotive travel in both directions?

•Turn the lights on: are they operating correctly?

•You activate sound by pressing function key F1,

either the Diesel starts or you hear steam sounds.

When pressing function key F2 you should hear the

horn, whistle or bell, etc.

4.1 Analogue operation

4.1.1 DC Operation

DC operation using a conventional controller is possible

without any problems but has one limitation. The

locomotive will only start moving when the track

voltage reaches7-8V.Maximum speed will be reached

when turning the controller to the limit. This is

absolutely normal and is due to the minimum voltage

the LokSoundXL decoder requires for operation.

As factory default, sound effects cannot be activated

in DC operation.

4.1.2 AC operation with conventional

Märklin® controller

Operation with conventional Märklin® controllers

works as usual: speed is controlled by turning the

knob.

To change direction the knob has to be turned to the

left beyond the stop position.

Please note:

The locomotive must have completely stopped

before changing direction. Never change

direction of a moving locomotive!

Press the knob slightly longer than usual (about

0,5 sec) in order to activate the command reliably.

As factory default, sound effects cannot be used with

this type of operation.

4.2 Digital operation

4.2.1 Using Märklin® 6021

The LokSoundXL decoder may be used with all

Märklin® products or compatible systems.

The functions F1 to F4 can only be activated with the

"New Motorola Format". To activate this format put

the DIP switches 1 and 2 of the 6021 to the upper

("On") position.

4.2.2 With DCC (Lenz, Intellibox, etc)

Remove capacitors that may be connected to

the track section (e.g. in ROCO connecting track).

They may impede normal operation of the

decoder.

LokSoundXL can be run with any system that conforms

to DCC. The automatic speed step detection has been

tested with the following appliances: ROCO Lokmaus

2, Uhlenbrock Intellibox, Lenz Digital plus V2.3, ZIMO

MX1.

The detection does not work properly when

operated with Lenz Digital plus V3.0 if you wish

to run 14 speed steps. Use 28/128 speed steps.

Each time that the LokSoundXL decoder receives a

current (i.e. after the system is switched on) and the

light is switched on it tries to detect the speed steps

settings. If you switchover the speed steps settings

during operation you must briefly switch off the

current supply to the decoder so that the automatic

mode functions as desired. The detection takes up to

30 seconds.

The detection can be switched off using CV 49 (please

refer to section 7.1).

Operation with LGB Multi Train System (MTS)

LokSoundXL decoders also support the LGB Command

Control system. Both Lok-Mouse and Lok-Handy may

be used, but they have to be activated first.

LGB does not utilize the function keys specified in the

DCC standards but has designed a procedure based

1 2 ... 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 ... 35 36
