PROGRAMMING FOR A SEPARATE BELL BUTTON
CONTROLLER
To operate ProtoSounds with a
separate bell button controller,
like the Lionel® No. 5906 bell
button, you will need to wire up
the controller to your
transformer and track as shown
in Fig. 5. Once the button is
wired, ProtoSounds comes
preprogrammed to allow you to
operate the bell by simply
pushing the bell button once.
To turn the bell off, push the button again. If the bell doesn’t function when
you press the button, you may need to re-program ProtoSounds to operate
with a separate bell
button controller. To do
this enter RESET and go
to Feature 20. (See the
section Using RESET To
Program
ProtoSounds®on page
17.) Once in Feature 20,
press the whistle button
and wait for the module to sound a bell ding(s). Continue pushing the
whistle button until the module plays back two dings (signifying that the
module has been programmed for a bell button). Simply turn the throttle off
and then on again to “Lock-In" the new setting. To reset the computer to its
original factory (default) setting (no separate bell button operation), repeat
the above procedure but keep pushing the whistle button until the computer
only responds with one bell ding.
PROGRAMMING FOR SQUEAKING BRAKE

ProtoSounds can be programmed for squeaking brake operation in three
different manners; (1)Squeaking brakes can be activated by bell button
control, (2)they can be programmed for continuous operation subject to
throttle changes or (3)they can be programmed to be turned off. The default
setting is (2) Squeaking brakes are activated for full-time operation as
