Proto-Whistle
This feature allows you to use the thumbwheel to simulate the engineer’s feathering or “quill-
ing” of the whistle/horn rope, producing a much more realistic whistle/horn sound.
Proto-Whistle is not available on all DCS-equipped engines. This feature will only work on
those engines whose hardware is capable of utilizing the software feature. Therefore, the
softkey acronyms will not be visible on the DCS screen for locomotives not equipped with the
proper hardware. Downloading the sound set from a locomotive equipped with the Proto-
Whistle feature and loading it into an engine not factory equipped with the feature will not
give the user the Proto-Whistle feature even though the Proto-Whistle softkey acronyms will
appear on the DCS screen.
1. Select the Proto-Whistle-equipped engine in the DCS App.
2. Double tap the Horn/Whistle icon and it will turn purple.
3. Your display will change to indicate that Proto-Whistle is active.
4. To disable the feature and return to controlling your engine, double tap the Horn/Whistle
icon again.
NOTE:
When Proto-Whistle is active, your regular Whistle/Horn button is inactive.
