This decoder is a M4 decoder with built in Keep-Alive™, and will keep your locomotive operating for 6-15 seconds without power (As a result of dirty track, poor contacts, etc.). This decoder is physically larger than a M-series decoder, but features the same operational characteristics. The on-board resistors on this decoder allow for LED installations without the need for external resistors for F0F, F0R, F1 or F2. Use the standard KAM4 decoder if your locomotive uses incandescent bulbs.
Included on-board for smooth, stutter-free operation.
Provides superior slow speed control and high performance under load.
Super-quiet motor control for "buzz" free motor performance.
Decoder will automatically detect DC power. You can also configure how your lighting effects function on DC.
Allows you to make custom acceleration and deceleration curves.
This product does not require external resistors when connecting LED's.
Buttons 0 through 12 may be used to control the lighting functions of this decoder.
Choose from 20 separate user-programmable lighting effects!
