This is a Roco 3 rail locomotive with a Zimo sound decoder, new product. The decoder is a MS 450 P 22 Zimo decoder, I looked it up on the Zimo site and sure enough they list some MFx support. The function icons did not load, I'll try it with my mobile station 2 later and see if they load on a Marklin controller. I wasn't aware that ZIMO decoders now have M4 support.

I have a Marklin CS 3 and my Jaegendorfer ski lift has ESU mfx M4 sound decoder. It automatically registered and all functions are there. The Ecos may be different though?
