Silver+ Locomotive decoder
The DIGITAL plus SILVER+ locomotive decoder is suitable for all DC locomotives
with continuous current draw of 1.0 Amp. or less. The characteristics of the
decoder are:
Super smooth and silent high frequency back-emf motor control
Full RailCom NMRA DCC Bi-directional support
Five function outputs rated at 500mA each
Each function output supports F0-F28 with simplified function mapping
Directional or independent lighting with dimming and special effects
Support for automatic uncoupling control
Asymmetric DCC support including directional stopping
Adjustable precision stopping control
Low speed gear for switching operations
Selectable for operation with 14/27, or 28/128 speed steps
Operation on conventional DC layouts is possible or can be disabled
Motor output = 1A continuous, 1.6A max, > 5 A stall
Motor and function outputs protected
Support for Advanced Consist Control and Extended Addressing
Support for all forms of programming as described in RP-9.2.1 & RP-9.2.3
Supports service mode decoder lock

  • Page 3: Special Features

    Silver+ Locomotive decoder Special Features RailCom The Silver+ is equipped with RailCom technology. In addition to the locomotive address, other data (e.g. speed, CV content) can be transmitted from the locomotive via the track back to the system. The information sent is received by a RailCom detector and then displayed. Which data the decoder is to send is set in CV28.
  • Page 4 Silver+ Locomotive decoder will travel a settable, pre-defined braking distance. This braking distance does not depend on the speed of the locomotive/train. Enable the constant braking distance function (this requires setting Bit 0(1) in CV51. If this bit is not set, the decoder will use the normal speed- dependent braking delay).
  • Page 5 Silver+ Locomotive decoder Lighting effect at function outputs Special lighting effects can be assigned to each of the function outputs. The lighting effects for the function outputs A and B are set in CV60 and for the function outputs C and D in CV62. If you wish to switch the effects with a function of the digital system, you can make the allocations to functions F1 to F8 in CV61 (for function outputs A and B) and CV64 (for function outputs C and D).
  • Page 6: Wiring Options

    Silver+ Locomotive decoder The SILVER+ decoder cannot be set up for simultaneous use for 2-rail pickup and overhead cantenary or trolley operation. If the locomotive is turned the wrong way, the decoder could get twice the track voltage, which would destroy it! Wiring Options There are two wiring options for installing the SILVER+, depending on how the locomotive is constructed.
  • Page 7 Silver+ Locomotive decoder Five wires connect the headlights and functions to the decoder: • White wire (Pin #6) to the forward headlight or the function controlled by Output A. If the bulb is isolated, connect the blue wire (Pin #7) to the other terminal.
