#19: Transformer Type
In Auto-Select, QS-2+ automatically identifies your transformer. If you use one
transformer exclusively, you can assign QS-2+ to that transformer.
Popular transformers are listed below. Transformers not listed here can still be
assigned under one of the popular transformers. See Appendix II, "Connecting
Transformer and Horn/Bell Controllers to Your Track" for a list of approved
transformers and the transformer type choice QSI recommends.
If you chose the wrong type of transformer, you may notice erratic horn or bell
button operation, irregular chuffing, or difficulty moving through RESET
Positions. If this happens, return to this RESET Position and choose "Auto
Select," or choose the correct transformer type from the four possibilities.
The factory default setting is "Auto Select."

Find RESET Position #19

Press the Horn Button
The first time you press the horn button you will hear either two to five horn
blasts or two to five "dings."
If QS-2+ is in Auto Select, the horn blasts tell you which transformer QS-2+
chose the last time it identified the transformer.
If you hear two blasts, QS-2+ made choice #2, which is a ZW or Dallee®.
If you hear three blasts, QS-2+ made choice #3 which is a Lionel® Cab-1®
transformer.
If you hear four blasts, QS-2+ made choice #4, which is MRC™ or All-
Trol™.
If you hear five blasts, QS-2+ made choice #5, which is RS-1.
If you do not hear horn blasts, you are not in Auto Select. Instead, you will hear
bell "dings," telling you which transformer type you assigned to QS-2+ the last
time you were in this RESET Position.
To choose a transformer other than Auto-Select, press the horn button again to
cycle through the choices until you reach the transformer type you want.
The choices are:
1 "ding" = "Auto Select": QS-2+ identifies the transformer during each
RESET. When you are in RESET and lower the throttle, the air let-
off "pssht, pssht" sound tells you QSl-2+ has identified the
transformer.
2 "dings" = "ZW or Dallee": ZW includes Lionel Standard transformers, like
the KW, 1033, etc.
3 "dings" = "Lionel Cab-1"
4 "dings" = "MRC/All-Trol"
5 "dings" = "RS-1"
