carefully, you should hear an air release sound after three seconds have
passed. At this time you can release the bell button. (Note: because the air
release sound may be difficult to hear, we recommend that you count out a
full three seconds before releasing the bell button.) The bell will continue
to chime, so if you want to turn off the bell ringing, simply press and release
the bell button a second time. If you were in Neutral when you triggered
the brake feature, interrupt the transformer throttle to enter either forward or
reverse and allow the engine to begin moving. (Note: the feature will only
be activated in the first direction state you enter after arming the feature
from the Neutral position. You cannot interrupt the power twice to enter
another direction state and still have the brake feature active.) Once your
engine begins moving, you can trigger the sounds to begin playing
whenever you enter Neutral.
Option 2: If you do not have a separate bell button on your layout, you
can still activate the feature with your transformer whistle button. To
activate the feature, turn on the transformer throttle and get your engine into
the Neutral position (not RESET). Once in Neutral, set the transformer
throttle at 8 volts or less and press and hold the whistle button for at least
three seconds. You will hear the bell chiming begin and if you listen
carefully, you should hear an air release sound after three seconds have
passed. At this time you can release the whistle button. (Note: because the
air release sound may be difficult to hear, we recommend that you count out
a full three seconds before releasing the whistle button.) The bell will
continue to chime, so if you want to turn off the bell ringing, simply press
and release the whistle
button a second time.
