Zimo locomotive decoders are characterized by excellent motor control and a wide range of configuration options.

The configuration of the decoder can be done with any suitable command station in DCC protocol or conveniently with the update and configuration device MXULFA from Zimo. The MXULFA can also be used to update the firmware.

* The H0 sound decoders MS450 include a circuit for direct energy storage connection of electrolytic capacitors, tantals or supercaps - i.e. without additional components. This circuit ensures optimal (normally current-limited) charging and discharging of the energy storage and is included in the price of the decoder, in contrast to power packs and the like. Auxiliaries, which are needed for non-ZIMO decoders. Furthermore, for connected electrolytic capacitors or supercapacitors, a dielectric strength of 15 V is sufficient, even if the driving voltage is higher (tantals should have a voltage reserve due to their design, i.e. at least 20 V). MS decoders (in contrast to ZIMO MX decoders) do NOT set a limit regarding the capacity, but more than 1 Farad is not very useful.
