CV 4
Baseline Braking Rate

Description

Contains a value between 0 and 255 that sets the decoder’s braking rate:

D0-D7: Baseline Braking Rate

Braking rate may be computed as:

seconds/speed step = CV 3 x 0.896÷Number of speed steps

When this CV is set to 0, the locomotive speed will respond nearly instantly

to decreases in the throttle setting. When set to 255, it will take approximately

3.8 minutes to brake to a stop from full speed.

It is recommended that this CV be set to a nonzero value when operating the

DSD in 14 or 28 speed step modes as the throttle will interpolate between

speed steps during braking to produce a smoother overall response.

Default value:

0
