Digital Sound
Your Proto-Sound 3.0 (PS3) equipped powered car contains over 100
individual recordings. These recordings are played back dynamically at
appropriate times to create a symphony of realism for your ears. Hear the
sound automatically intensify or lighten when speeding up or slowing
down, listen to the sounds of brakes squeaking and squealing as you come
to a stop, or enjoy the random conversations of railmen working as your
model sits at idle. It's all there and it's incredible.
Your HO powered car includes built-in realistic horn sound effects,
including forward (two blasts) and reverse (three blasts) signaling and
crossing signal sounds, all available with one-touch control from a DCS
controller or through any DCC controller capable of accessing up to F28.
Digital Control
In standard analog DC mode, your model still operates under digital
control. The PS3 advance speed control system converts track voltage
into digital speed commands. Your model will run smoothly and
consistently at any speed regardless of load, hills, or curves. If you are a
DCC user, you'll quickly learn to appreciate the precision of our speed
control and linear speed curve. DCS users will enjoy the added benefits of
controlling speeds in increments of 1 scale mile per hour displayed on
DCS controllers or easily changing acceleration and deceleration rates
independently without any discussion of bits or bytes.
To be clear, DCS
is NOT DCC.
Lights
As you read on, you’ll notice there are no instructions for replacing light
bulbs in your powered car. That's because there aren’t any. We use
specially designed and controlled LEDs to create realistic lighting effects
that occur automatically. Again, NO PROGRAMMING!
More…
In analog DC operation, just flip the track polarity or direction switch at
any speed and watch your powered car gradually come to stop, turn on
the appropriate directional lighting, and smoothly accelerate back up to
speed. No other HO powered car has features like these. There are so
many more things to learn and enjoy about M.T.H. powered cars, we
could write a book. But, that's no fun. So, if you haven't already done so,
flip to the Quick Start Guide and let's run your new powered car!
