Locomotive decoder LE010XF Back EMF Control The LE010 uses a form of motor control called "back emf" control. All DC motors produce a small amount of current when they are rotating. The amount of current produced is a function of the load that the motor is controlling.
Locomotive decoder LE010XF touch the surface components of the decoder. This could cause a direct internal short circuit and the decoder will be destroyed. DO NOT WRAP decoder with electrical tape or shrink wrap! Doing so will impede air circulation and degrade the performance of the decoder.

Locomotive decoder LE010XF Creating a Speed Curve One common feature is to set a specific operating speed curve for your locomotives. This is usually done to have dissimilar locomotives have the same performance characteristics or to have the locomotives perform more prototypically. Start by writing down how you want to assign the internal speed settings to the speed steps, for example by making up a table as shown below.
