**Standard ESU LokPilot v5 CV List (CV 1 – 255)**

- **CV 1** : Short address (Decoder address 1–127)
- **CV 2** : Vmin (Starting voltage)
- **CV 3** : Acceleration rate (Momentum)
- **CV 4** : Deceleration rate (Braking momentum)
- **CV 5** : Vmax (Maximum speed)
- **CV 6** : Vmid (Midpoint speed)
- **CV 7** : Software version (Read-only)
- **CV 8** : Manufacturer ID (ESU = 151; enter 8 to perform a decoder reset)
- **CV 13 / CV 14** : Function states during analog operation / DC operation
- **CV 17 / CV 18** : Long address (Extended 4-digit address 128–9999)
- **CV 19** : Consist address (Multi-unit operation)
- **CV 21 / CV 22** : Consist function mapping controls
- **CV 29** : Decoder configuration settings (Direction, speed steps, RailCom, address length)
- **CV 51–56** : Motor control and load regulation tuning parameters
- **CV 64** : Brake mode and analog detector options
- **CV 96 / CV 97 / CV 99** : Indirect programming registers for high-numbered CVs

**Indexed CVs (CVs above 255)**

LokPilot 5 uses indexed addressing (via **CV 31** and **CV 32** ) to access over a thousand hidden variables, particularly for function mapping and advanced logic outputs.

- **CV 31** : Index block register (Default/Base settings usually require `CV 31 = 16`)
- **CV 32** : Secondary index selector (Defines the specific functional page/sub-bank)
- **CV 257–512** : Mapped variables on the active index page (e.g., individual physical and logical function outputs like AUX1–AUX31)
