EM-1 2-8-8-4 decoder

EM-1 decoder question:

does anybody know the supported CV's on the new decoder that Bachmann is using in the EM-1.
It appears that CV 5 (-max voltage i.e top speed-) can now be programmed which was not available on the older decoders.
Bachmann still shows the old decoder in their on-line literature.

Hi Mr. Bach Man.

do you not know about this new decoder or is this site not moderated anymore?

Dear Fred,
I'll check with SoundTraxx tomorrow.
Thanks,

Thanks for response but this decoder is in the N scale EM-1 and your sales info makes this a Lenz decoder.

Dear Fred,
You're right.
Check with the service department on Monday. They should have the info you need.
Thanks,
the Bach-man

The EM1 has a 3 function decoder that is very similar to the Lenz Silver decoder.

What is wire 3 for on the N scale DCC decoder? I've never seen it before on other Bachmann decoders.
