SignalPilot Accessory DCC Decoder for Signals

The LokSound by ESU SignalPilot Accessory DCC Decoder is a multi-protocol accessory decoder designed for controlling signals. SignalPilot supports DCC and Motorola(R) formats. Flexible programming makes this decoder a great choice for signal and accessory control. The SignalPilot has 16 outputs for direct connection of micro lamps or LEDs installed in signals. The outputs are designed as push-pull power amplifiers suitable for both conventional signals with common anode as well as for signals or lighting strips with common ground (common cathode), as is the case with some Viessmann signals. The SignalPilot decoder can also handle semaphore signals and turnout motors.
 
The SignalPilot supports both DCC with RailComPlus and Motorola. Programming allows for each output to be assigned to any address or to a combination of addresses. SignalPilot can be powered either directly by the digital command station or by any transformer or power supply unit providing DC or AC. You may wire LEDs from two-, three or four-aspect daylight signals directly to any of the outputs. Each output can be programmed individually to generate continuous output, blinking light or pulsed light. Brightness and blinking frequency respectively number of pulses can be adjusted as desired. The same goes for the cross fading times. SignalPilot can also control semaphores and turnout motors (switch machines). The firmware of the SignalPilot can be updated with the aid of the LokProgrammer at any time. SignalPilot is part of the line of ESU LokSound decoders.
