Description
This Sound decoder is a small, efficient, multi-protocol decoder. It can be operated in DCC
and Motorola digital systems and also runs in DC analogue mode. The operating mode will be
detected automatically but can also be locked manually.
The decoder operates with a frequency of 18.75KHz and is therefore well suited for DC and
especially for Bell armature motors (e.g. Faulhaber, Maxon, Escap) up to a maximum power
load of 0.6A. Short burst start up currents are tolerated.
Motor characteristics can be controlled either by setting the minimum, maximum and middle
speeds or via various CVs for individual speed steps.
Load regulation can be controlled via regulation parameters to a variety of individual motors.
The decoder provides two direction dependent lighting outputs as well as two additional
special function outputs. Train lighting can be switched off if desired.
Using F3 and F4 a shunting mode for slow speeds and Start/braking inertia can be activated.
The assignment of the switching operations such as lights, special function outputs, Shunting
mode and switchable start/brake inertia can be freely assigned to F0 - F12 by the digital
controller (Function mapping).
Installation of the Sound Decoder
Fastening the decoder in the Vehicle (not 33150)
Using the double sided adhesive pad provided. Affix the decoder to the desired location in the
locomotive. The adhesive pad protects the decoder from contacting conducting surfaces and
holds it in place.

- Page 2 Double check the correct installation with a continuity tester or an Ohmmeter. When placing the device make sure it does not come into contact with any conducting surfaces in the vehicle. Also ensure that a short circuit cannot occur when the locomotive is closed and that the wire is not cinched.
- Page 3 The function numbers entered here must be set up, using function mapping, so they do not switch other outputs on. It must also be ensured that the outputs used for the red lights can not be controlled by other function keys, due to function mapping, i.e. the function mapping of function keys set up here must be set to zero.
- Page 4 Calculating the CV value With CV29 and CV49 various characteristics of the decoder may be established. The required values are easily calculated using the CV table and simple addition.
