Your engine is equipped with a sound package of passenger station announcements
that you can play when you pull into a station. 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
PSA sufficient time to run through each sequence.
•To cue the sound system to play the PSA, quickly but firmly tap the Bell
button once followed by 2 quick taps of the Hor n 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 PSA. 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 2.0 has disabled operator control over the Horn and Bell
buttons until the full PSA sequence is complete.
•After waiting about 30 seconds for that sequence to run, press the
Direction button again to trigger the second sequence of PSA.
•After about 30 seconds, press the Direction button again to trigger the
third PSA 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 PSA
sequence. The PSA 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.
