RailKing 6-8-6 Steam Turbine Engine
Lock into a Directional State:
You can lock your engine into a directional state (forward, neutral, or reverse)
to prevent it from changing directions. To do this, put the engine into the
direction you want (or into neutral to lock it into neutral), run it at a very slow
speed (< 10 scale mph), and quickly but firmly press your remote’s Whistle
button once followed immediately by three presses of the Bell button. Two
horn blasts will indicate that the engine has made the change. The engine will
not change direction (including going into neutral) until you repeat the 1
whistle, 3 bells code to return the engine to its normal state, even if the engine
is kept without power for extended periods of time.
Reset to Factory Defaults:
To override the settings you currently have assigned to the engine and reset it
to its factory defaults, while in Neutral press the Whistle button once, followed
immediately by five quick pushes of the Bell button. Two horn blasts will
indicate that the engine has made the change.
Automatic Sounds:
Certain Proto-Sound 2.0 sound effects automatically play in programmed
conventional mode conditions:
•
Squealing Brakes
play any time the engine’s speed decreases
rapidly.
•
Cab Chatter
plays when the engine idles in neutral.
•
Engine Start-up and Shut-down
sounds play when the engine is
initially powered on or is powered off for five seconds or more.
