Let’s Get Started!
The Tsunami Digital Sound Decoder has been installed with all the CVs
programmed so you can begin using your locomotive immediately without
having to worry about what adjustments to make. The decoder is set to
operate using either a 12 volt DC power pack or NMRA-compatible DCC
command station.
Operating with DCC
Each model has its address set to match the road number of the locomotive
with the exception of unlettered versions which are set to address 3.
Since these decoders have two rather than four lighting outputs, we have
made some changes to the standard function assignments so that those using
command stations with limited functions keys can access some additional
sound functions. The table below shows the function assignments as well as
the default function assignments for after-market Tsunami decoders. Function
Assignments are as follows:
This will help you to match the function assignments if you have other Tsunami
decoders on your layout. The
User’s Guide
located on the CD will give you
all the information you need to adjust your decoder to suit your taste. Also you
can easily restore the function mapping to the same as your other Tsunami
decoders by restoring the settings in CV 30 and CVs 44-46 to the default
values listed in the
Technical Reference.
For now, simply set your controller to the appropriate address, place the
locomotive on the mainline and away you go!
