Bachmann E-Z Command 3 Function Locomotive Decoder (36-553)

A new three function decoder offering more advanced features including back EMF motor control at a bargain price!

A new budget priced DCC decoder with two additional function controls. Fitted with a NEM plug for fitting to DCC Ready locomotives.

Length 26mm, Width 17mm, Height 7mm. Wire length 70mm

The back EMF control used on this decoder will give superb results at slow speed when correctly set. The default CV values are suitable for many motors, however there may be instability in motor performance when the back EMF control is not matched to the requirements of the motor. If this is found to be the case CVs 53 to 55 should be adjusted to alter the back EMF settings to suit the motor. In case of difficulty contact Bachmann Europe for more advice.

Motor output 700mA with 31.25KHz pulse frequency for smooth and quiet slow speed running.
Function outputs 180mA each, 350mA max. total
Function button controlled shunting speed, halves the maximum speed when enabled.
