Noel Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 Lenz shunting tip. This past year I've been using Lenz silver+ decoders on our MM 141/181 and 071 locos and very pleased with their ultra smooth and quiet motor control. However I only recently discovered Fn 4 effectively toggles a shunting mode which temporarily disables the normal accelaration and braking delays (ie cv3/4). This is really useful for direct instant throttle control when shunting. Function 4 turns this off and on. It has meant I have been able to program quite long accelaration and braking delays but not loose precision when shunting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Loksound and Zimo decoder so have the same function, but personally I find the running a bit jerky without any acc/dec delay. The Loksound has a function which halves the dec value, I find this is good for simulating light engine movements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
