ZIMO MX649N - 8 Predefined CV sets; CV Set Activation via CV #8

Non-Sound Decoder MX600 - MX638 and Sound Decoder MX640 - MX659 Page 67
8 Predefined CV sets
The CV sets described below are available from software version 27.0, but only in non-sound de-
coders, like the MX620, MX621, MX630, MX631 and MX632. More CV sets will be added with future
software versions.
There are no CV sets available for sound decoders; the corresponding tasks are part of the sound project CV list.
CV sets are lists of predefined CV settings that are embedded in the decoder software; when desired,
one of these lists can be activated by a "pseudo-programming" of CV #8.
Decoders delivered as “normal” decoders don’t have any of the existing lists activated; instead the
CV’s contain the “normal” default values as shown in the CV tables above. However, an existing CV
set can be activated with the “CV #8” procedure (see below).
Decoders delivered as “OEM” decoders, i.e. decoders installed by a loco manufacturer, usually have
a fitting CV set activated. If needed, the decoder can be set back to the “normal” (default) values with
the “CV #8” procedure (see below).
The existing CV sets that can be activated in non-sound decoders:

= 14, 15, 16 for Roco articles 801088000, 801088001, 801088002 (Delivered WITHOUT RailCom)

other CVs are uniformly set as follows:
