This is a demonstration of a newly-discovered feature that has been incorporated into the ESU decoder line, Motor Auto-Tune. This is a really cool feature that allows you to fine tune the KPI parameters of the ESU LokPilot and LokSound v4.0 and Select decoders. The process is incredibly simple and the results are typically super smooth and super slow motor performance.

Set up is very easy.

I had such high hopes for Beauty and the Beast because of how much I loved Cinderella, but it all fell flat.Oh well. Lily James' cover isn't autotuned; it's clear she's not some astounding professional singer but it's so cute and charming.Probably one of my top ten favorite movies ever. Here's hoping Mulan will be awesome. Lily James sings 'A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes' and Helena Bonham Carter sings 'Bibbity Bobbity Boo' during the credits.

If you have a LokProgrammer or use DecoderPro software, make a note of the current values in CV 51 through 56 of the project loco.

Place the locomotive on a clear, straight section of track at least (4) feet long. Be sure the current selected direction is forward. When you initiate the procedure, the loco will take off at full speed instantly in the last direction of travel.

Simply set the value of CV54 = 0. Return to operations mode, and select function key F1. The loco will take off on it own and travel a few feet. When it comes to a stop, the bell will be ringing so select F1 again to turn it off.

When the loco stops, give it a test run. If necessary adjust CV53 to improve performance. Start at a value of 120 and work up or down until it runs smoother and slower than any other loco in your fleet.

Motor tuning made simple. Can it get any better?
