Can anyone help me I've just picked up a very nice Hornby black Five at a train fair at the weekend and it's fitted with an ESU Loksound decoder. 

 

I think it is a Loksound 4

 

but I don't know whose sound files it has and don't have the instructions with the function list is there a way to find out?

 

The little label on the decoder just says black 5 V1 

 

Thanks

I've had another look online tonight and managed to work it out by the process of elimination it's a DC kits sound file

 

It's a superb sound file. the only thing I need to do now is adjust the breaking on F5 the active break application CV 179 needs more breaking on the loco.

Chances are that its my sound file.

Can you read CV106?

Send me a PM.

Wiggy.

On my lokprogramer CV106 reads 0

 

on my Hornby elite CV106 reads 255

i haven’t tried my NCE power cab yet 

 

I’m sure it’s a The DC kits sound as it matches their function sheet

OK,

Its not my sound file.

Having said that, to alter CV179 to give greater stopping distance lower the value.

I set my default to CV179=50

Be interested in what the default is on yours?
