(Additional equipment required)

While conventional mode operation of a Proto-Sound 2.0 engine yields wonderfully
realistic sound and several train control features, command mode operation allows the
user to access a world of command functions never before accessible to O Gauge
railroaders.  With the addition of the DCS Remote Control System (including a DCS
remote handheld and Track Interface Unit) users gain many advanced features, including:

DCS Proto-Speed Control - Establishes desired locomotive speed in scale miles
per hour increments via a thumbwheel control and allows operator to set
maximum speed and acceleration/deceleration rates

ProtoSmoke® Variable Output Control - Controls how much smoke each engine
outputs and matches smoke to locomotive speed

Locomotive Lighting Control - Controls locomotive headlights, marker and
interior lights, beacon lights, ditch lights, and MARS lights

Emergency Stop-Single button push stops all Proto-Sound 2.0 trains but does not 
turn off the power

One Touch Global Mute/UnMute-Single button mutes or unmutes all
DCS-controlled locomotives' user-defined actions, including sound, lights, and
smoke

Proto-Dispatch Operation-Public Address-like feature allows users to speak
through locomotive speaker during operation

Proto-Cast-Allows users to play audio recordings through locomotive speaker
during operation

Proto-Doppler Sound Effects Set Up-Users can configure locomotive for
Doppler Operation, including setting distance points for Doppler start, repeat,
and stop modes

Independent Volume Control of Engine Sounds, Bell, Horn & Whistle for each
Locomotive

Control up to 50 different DCS-Equipped Locomotives at one time with multiple 
TIUs

Proto-Effects™ Set Up-User can select individual Proto-Effects™ operations to
be active or inactive, including cab chatter, train wreck sounds, coupler sounds,
and wheel clickety-clack sounds

Direction Control Set Up-User can set initial individual start-up direction (start
in forward or reverse) for double-heading operations

Locomotive Consist Set-up-User can determine locomotive values for consist
make-ups, allowing multiple locomotives belonging to a consist to operate
together

Additional Features Accessible With The DCS
Remote Control System
