List of supported CVs
CV Name	CV	Default	Description
Primary Address	1	3	Bits 0-6 contain an address with a value between 1 and 127. Bit seven must have a value of "0". If the value of Configuration Variable #1 is "00000000" then the decoder will go out of NMRA digital mode and convert to the alternate power source as defined by Configuration Variable #12.
Acceleration Rate	3	5	Determines the decoder's acceleration rate.The formula for the acceleration rate shall be equal to (the contents of CV#3*.896) /(number of speed steps in use).
Deceleration Rate	4	5	Determines a decoders braking rate.
Manufacturer Version No.	7	13	Manufacturer defined version info
Manufacturers ID	8	48	Values assigned by NMRA
EMF Feedback Cutout	10	128	Contains a value between 1 and 128 that indicates the speed step above which the back EMF motor control cuts off.
Extended Address	17-18		The Extended Address is the locomotives address when the decoder is set up for extended addressing (indicated by a value of "1" in bit location 5 of CV#29). CV#17 contains the most significant bits of the two byte address and must have a value between 11000000 and 11100111, inclusive, in order for this two byte address to be valid. CV 18 contains the least significant bits of the address and may contain any value.
Configuration Data #1	29		Decoder Configuration byte 1 Bit 0 = Locomotive Direction: "0" = normal, "1" = reversed.This bit controls the locomotive's forward and backward direction in digital mode only. Directional sensitive functions, such as headlights (FL and FR), will also be reversed so that they line up with the locomotive's new forward direction. Bit 1 = FL location: "0" = bit 4 in Speed and Direction instructions control FL, "1" = bit 4 in function group one instruction controls FL. Bit 2 = Power Source Conversion: "0" = NMRA Digital Only, "1" = Power Source Conversion Enabled. Bit 5 = "0" = one byte addressing, "1" = two byte addressing (also known as extended addressing).

All the CVs shown can be programmed in Operating Mode, Register CV Mode, Paged CV Mode and Direct CV Mode. All the CVs shown can be interrogated in all service modes. The Hornby Decoder supports programming on the Main. Some advice on the current draw of the decoder output: The current for all the decoder outputs is supplied by an internal rectifier with a maximum current of 1 Amp and the rated continuous current is 500mA.The sum of all currents to the motor and the function outputs should not exceed 500mA at normal continuous operation and cannot exceed 1 Amp. If the motor current exceeds 500mA the decoder will automatically cut off power to the motor. Function outputs are not protected. Each individual output can only draw up to it’s limit. For example if a motor requires as much as 400mA continuously then the function outputs combined should not exceed 100mA. Therefore, if the directional headlights require 50mA then the load Function 1 and Function 2 should not exceed 50mA.
