After switching on one hears a hissing noise, which will be heard up to the time the unit is switched off. While driving, there is a speed-dependent steam sounds. With the function keys one can actuate many auxiliary noises, such as locomotive whistle, brake noise, station announcement, air pump, the sound of doors being slammed shut and the blowing of a whistle to start the train.
Realistic sound "DRIVE" is a new, very small digital decoder with sound for installation in H0 locomotives. It allows for simultaneous rendition of two driving noises (e.g. diesel engine and exhaust) and two auxiliary noises (via function keys or release of reed switches). The decoder recognizes automatically whether the system is operating in analog or digital mode. Current monitoring, load control and the control of 4 auxiliary functions (lamps, steam generator etc.) are standard. In addition, an automatic train control module is integrated with programmable stop time (e.g. in the station). Supplied with 23mm loudspeaker assembly and 3 resonators of different depths.
Technical Data:
Operating voltage: 5-27V, current to 1.2A; PW modulation, to 24 kHz (adjustable); 2 light outputs @ 50 mA (dimmable); 2 function outputs @ 100 mA (total value of current of all outputs 300 mA).
Automatic recognition of digital or analog operation; NMRA DCC and Motorola/Märklin®; 10239 programmable locomotive addresses; up to 128 drive positions (adjustable), current monitoring and digital load control (variable, disconnectible); Characteristics -, register and CV programming; processes F1 to F20. 1 connection for reed contact for the release of auxiliary noises and/or automatic train control module, 1 connection for wheel sensor; many functions digitally adjustable (auxiliary and condition noises, light etc.).
Sound: Power output 1 Watt (music); 4 sounds playable simultaneously; sound, volume and function outputs programmable; Loudspeaker disconnectible; adjustable driving sounds; 8 auxiliary sounds (triggered by reed contacts, function keys or random control); the sounds are filed in flash memory, so that they can be changed.
Size: 8.5 x 15.5 x 35.5 mm (incl. Protective cover); Connection via NMRA interface (NEM 650/652), Firmware upgradeable. |
