Motorless rolling stock can be digitalised with the LokPilot Fx micro V3.0., for which the LokPilot FX V3.0. is not small enough. To this end, LokPilot Fx micro V3.0 offers four function outputs, which can activate typical functions, such as car interior illumination, head- or rear (-end, warning-) lights on cars, and function models.

Of course, LokPilot Fx micro V3.0 is multi-protocol capable and with a dimension of 13.5mm x 9.0 mm x 3.5 mm (0.54 x 0.36 x 0.12 inch) small enough for most any application. LokPilot Fx micro V3.0 comes with an 6-wire NEM 651 harness.

Operational modes

LokPilot Fx micro V3.0 can handle DCC with 14, 28 or 128 speed steps as well as Motorola® and Selectrix®. The decoder recognizes the speed steps automatically. It supports Lenz® LG100 resp. ROCO® braking sections in addition to Zimo®’s HLU-commands, or braking in DC sections with reversed polarity as well as Märklin® braking sections (also for DCC). You can either use short-, or four digit addresses, or assign a consist address.

The Motorola® protocol enables the LokPilot Fx micro V3.0 decoder to run with Märklin® stations 6020®, 6021®, delta®, mobile station® and central station®. For those, the decoder handles addresses 01 – 255, and comes to a halt correctly on the Märklin® braking section. On Selectrix® layouts you can choose between addresses 01 – 112.

LokPilot Fx micro V3.0 converses during operation fully automatically between all control modes (Motorola®, DCC, DC, AC, Selectrix®).

Analog operation

There are no restrictions for LokPilot Fx micro V3.0-equipped rolling stock, of course, when operating in digital mode.

Functions

LokPilot Fx micro V3.0 comes with six function outputs, 140mA’s each, and each can be assigned individually to a function: There is flash light, alternate flash, (or ditch lights), strobe light, firebox flicker as well as Mars-or Gyra light for US models. There is also a high frequency-, time controlled output available for digitally operated couplings.

All function outputs can be dimmed individually in 15 steps. In DCC mode, each function output can be assigned to function keys F0 - F12. F0 – F8 will be recognized in Motorola® mode, the same in Selectrix® mode, depending on the station.

Programming

The LokPilot Fx micro V3.0 supports all DCC programming modes, including POM (Programming on the main). For Märklin® stations 6020®, 6021®, mobile station®, and central station® all programming is also done electronically. For these units LokPilot Fx micro V3.0 employs a time proven, easily acquired programming procedure.

The programmed changes during Motorola® operation are also valid during DCC- and Selectrix® operation – and vice verse. Programming parameters is especially simple for owners of our ECoS command station: All options are displayed in plain language on the large screen, and can easily be modified – even during operation on the layout.

Interaction

LokPilot Fx micro V3.0 is designed for optimum interaction with the LokSound V3.5 and the LokPilot V3.0 decoder: For example it’s possible to equip the cab of an A-A consist with a LokSound V3.5 decoder and the controlling car with a LokPilot Fx micro V3.0 decoder. Given both the same address, they work absolutely identically. Identical grouping of the CVs facilitates synchronisation of both decoders.

RailCom®

RailCom® is activated ex works. You are able to read CVs on the main track if you use an appropriate command station like our ECoS.

Protection

All function outputs are protected against overload and short circuit.

Built-in future

The LokPilot Fx micro V3.0 decoder is firmware upgradeable. New software functions can be installed through the LokProgrammer.
