MTH GP38-2 Operating Instructions
Activating Remote Lock-Out Control -
Reset Feature 40-(8 Clanks,
0 Clinks)
Reset Feature 40 allows you
to enable the Reverse Unit
Lockout feature of
Proto-Sound®. When
enabled, you are able to
lock the engine to run in
only one of the directional
states (Forward, Neutral or
Reverse) whenever power is
applied. The most common use for locking out an engine is in the use of
power blocks on a layout. To use, cycle to Reset 40 and press the Whistle
button. The engine will play a series of bells. This indicates the current
setting. Each time the Whistle button is pressed, Proto-Sound® will cycle
to the next available setting and provide the appropriate bell indicator. The
settings for Reset 40 are 1 Bell = OFF, 2 Bells = ON. When the desired
setting is reached, lock the changes by interrupting the throttle and cycling
the engine into forward.
Resetting All Proto-Sound® Options To Factory Defaults -
Reset 18-(3 Clanks, 3 Clinks)
Reset 18 is the most powerful of the Reset features available. Using Reset
18 allows you to override all changes in programming and return all Resets
to the original, out of the box settings. To use, cycle to Reset 18 and press
the Whistle button. The engine
will play a distorted bell,
followed by a clear bell sound.
This indicates that the
Proto-Sound system has restored
all settings to factory default
settings. Lock the changes by
interrupting the throttle and
cycling the engine into forward
