16bit

Sound sample

Project Information

  • Optimised for the Roco H0 model with a Plux22 connector.
  • Designed for 16-bit ZIMO MS series sound decoders.
  • Recommended minimum decoder software version is 5.5.
  • The factory default address is 3.
  • Program CV8 = 8 to reset the decoder to the project defaults.

Function Assignment

Function mapping and CV settings can be modified.

  • F0 Position white lights
    Affected function output: FA0v, FA0r
    Direction dependent
  • F1 Red lights
    Affected function output: FA1, FA2
    Direction dependent

    Affected function output: FA4
    If LEDs are installed
  • F3 Shunting mode - position lights in cross pattern
    Affected function output: FA5, FA6
    • speed range reduced to ½
    • reduces acceleration / braking times to ¼ of CV3 and CV4

Setting Maximum Speed

Set the maximum speed via CV57. Adjusting CV5 changes the sound range; CV57 leaves CV3/CV4 acceleration and braking times intact.

Shunting Mode

Shunting mode turns on all four marker lights. Disable it with CV37 = 0 and re-enable with CV37 = 192. The mode also turns off the red lights and headlight; override this behaviour by setting CV430 = 0 and back to CV430 = 3 when required.

The mode halves the speed range and reduces acceleration/braking times to a quarter of the CV3/CV4 values. Disable it via CV124 = 16; complete deactivation of the timings is possible with CV124 = 19. The default setting is CV124 = 18.

The script-driven short horn requires F3, engine sound on via F8, and starting from zero speed. CV837 = 8 disables it (default CV837 = 0).

F5 Coasting vs F6 Engine to Maximum RPM

If both functions are active, coasting (F5) takes precedence.

Cabin Lighting

The cabin light (F9) automatically switches off while the model moves and turns back on when it stops. Disable this script with CV837 = 16 (default CV837 = 0).

For lighting without automatic switching, set CV43 = 16 together with CV837 = 16. Revert to default behaviour via CV43 = 0 and CV837 = 0.

Compressor

Two script-controlled modes:

  1. Random activation while the engine sound (F8) is on; enabling F17 cancels it.
  2. Direct activation via F17 that requires F8 and zero speed.

CV837 = 1 disables F17, CV837 = 2 disables the random mode, and CV837 = 3 disables both.

Curve Squeal

Curve squeal requires F19 and F8 enabled, speed above 14 and below 100 (range 0–126). Set CV837 = 4 to disable the effect.

Custom Function Mapping

Use CV400 – CV428 for custom mapping if needed. The project itself does not rely on these CVs.

Decoder Reset

Program CV8 = 8 whenever you need to restore the default settings.
