Brand: LGB

Part No: HC-L55029

£223.43 RRP £237.69
Pre-Order

The LGB Retrofit Loc Decoder With Sound (HC-L55029) is a versatile upgrade for digital and analogue operation, supporting DCC, mfx and DC. It offers clearly increased performance over previous LGB decoders, expanded functions, and rich, configurable sound to enhance locomotives and powered rail cars.

Suggested compatibility includes LGB models from 2014 onwards featuring a 28‑pin interface. Many 10‑pin units can be converted using the 55529 interface adapter, while models without a factory interface may be converted using the supplied interface circuit board (approx. 65 x 40 mm).

Key Features

  • Digital (DCC, mfx) and analogue (DC) operation
  • Enhanced performance and extended function set versus earlier decoders
  • Easy configuration with the Märklin Decoder Tool and access to a growing online sound library tailored to LGB models
  • Programmable via Märklin CS2, CS3 and Mobile Station
  • Parallel control for all light and function outputs
  • Programmable blinking light and short-term functions
  • Load control adaptable for analogue and digital running

Technical Data

  • Total load max. 10 A; motor output > 4 A
  • Audio performance: 6.7 W / 4 Ohms
  • Locomotive address range: 1–10239
  • 14 or 28 (128) speed levels
  • Load control adaptable to different locomotive types
  • Parallel control for all light/function outputs
  • Programmable blinking light and short-term functions

What’s Included

  • Retrofit sound decoder
  • Interface circuit board (approx. 65 x 40 mm)
  • Speaker box

Other speakers with compatible electrical values can also be connected. The decoder can be programmed and tailored to your needs using the Märklin Decoder Tool (https://www.maerklin.de/de/service/downloads/neu-nachruest-decoder-mld3msd3/mdecodertool-mdt3/), with sound projects available from the extensive LGB-focused library.

This decoder can be used for digital operation (DCC, mfx) as well as in analog operation (DC). All LGB locomotives and powered rail cars produced starting in 2014 with the 28-pin interface can thereby be converted. Many units with the old 10-pin interface can be converted using the 55529 interface adapter. Units without an interface can be converted using the interface circuit board included with this decoder. Size of the interface circuit board approximately 65 x 40 mm / 2-1/2" x 1-9/16".
A speaker box is also included, but other speakers with compatible electrical values can also be connected.
Compared to the previous decoder the performance data have been clearly increased and furthermore this decoder offers considerably more functions and programming options. The decoder can be programmed easily with the Märklin Decoder Tool (https://www.maerklin.de/de/service/downloads/neu-nachruest-decoder-mld3msd3/mdecodertool-mdt3/) and can be adapted to individual requirements. Using the Internet, the option exists for access to the extensive sound library that has been expanded specially by a large number of well-known LGB models and that is constantly being expanded.
Technical Data:
- Total load max. 10 amps, motor output > 4 amps
- Audio performance (sound) 6.7 watts / 4 Ohms
