LoDi-83-AC

The LoDi-83-AC is an innovative AC voltage decoder for the DCC and Motorola protocols, developed based on the proven LoDi Operator 4-WD-AC—now with 8 channels for even more connection options.

Technical Highlights of the LoDi-83-AC

✅ 8 outputs with 1 A load capacity each
✅ Maximum total output: 2 A
✅ AC voltage between 14 V and 22 V
✅ RailCom compatible – Programming directly on the track
✅ Compatible with DCC & Motorola
✅ Overload protection on each output
✅ No remanence effect thanks to true AC voltage
✅ Ideal for solenoids, motorized turnouts, lamps, stop sections, and vintage coil drives

Why AC Voltage?

Many solenoid and coil drives on the market are designed for AC voltage. When powered with DC, there's a risk of unwanted magnetization (remanence), which can result in weak or stuck drives. The LoDi-83-AC delivers true AC voltage to ensure strong, reliable switching and a longer lifespan for your components.

Compatibility & Use Cases

✔ Solenoid and motorized turnout drives
✔ Signal and lighting control
✔ Stop sections, vintage coils & universal motors
✔ Layouts with DCC or Motorola control centers

RailCom & Programming

The LoDi-83-AC is fully RailCom compatible. You can program the decoder live on the track—no need for complicated rewiring or an external programmer.

Reliable Operation with Individual Output Protection

Each of the 8 outputs is individually protected against overload, ensuring safe and reliable operation even in large and complex layouts.
