Your engine is equipped with a sound package of either passenger station
announcements or freight yard sounds that you can play when you pull into a station or
a yard. Each sequence described below will play as long as it is left on, randomly
generating sounds, but be sure to allow approximately 30 seconds between the button
pushes described below to allow the PFA sufficient time to run through each sequence.
•To cue the sound system to play the PFA, quickly but firmly tap the Bell
button once followed by 2 quick taps of the Horn button while the
engine is moving. Tap the buttons quickly but allow approximately ½
second between each press.
• Press the Direction button once to stop the engine. This will trigger the
first sequence of PFA. The reverse unit is temporarily disabled so that the
train will not move as you use the Direction button to trigger the
sounds, and Proto-Sound 3.0 has disabled operator control over the Horn
and Bell buttons until the full PFA sequence is complete.
•After waiting about 30 seconds for that sequence to run, press the
Direction button again to trigger the second sequence of PFA.
•After about 30 seconds, press the Direction button again to trigger the third
PFA sequence.
•Again, after allowing about 30 seconds for that sequence to run, press the
Direction button one more time to trigger the fourth and final PFA
sequence. The PFA will continue, and within a few seconds, the
engine and bell will start and move out on its own at the current throttle
setting, in the same direction it was traveling when you began the sequence.
Once the bell turns off, the operator regains control of the transformer's bell
and Horn buttons and can ring the bell or blow the Horn as usual.
