Freight Yard Sounds (FYS) or
Passenger Station Announcements (PSA):
Your engine is equipped with a sound package of either freight yard or passenger station
sounds that you can play.
Each sequence described below will play as long as it is left
on, randomly generating sounds, but be sure to allow approximately 30 seconds
between the button pushes described below to allow the FYS/PSA sufficient time to
run through each sequence.
!
To cue the sound system to play the FYS/PSA, quickly but firmly tap the Bell
button once followed by 2 quick taps of the
Horn/Whistle button while the engine is
moving. Tap the buttons quickly but allow approximately ½ second between each
press.
!
Press the Direction button once to stop the engine. This will trigger the first
sequence of FYS/PSA. The reverse unit is temporarily disabled so that the train will
not move as you use the Direction button to trigger the sounds, and Proto-Sound 2.0
has disabled operator control over the
Horn/Whistle and Bell buttons until the full
FYS/PSA sequence is complete.
!
After waiting about 30 seconds for that sequence to run, press the Direction button
again to trigger the second sequence of FYS/PSA.
!
After about 30 seconds, press the Direction button again to trigger the third
FYS/PSA sequence.
!
Again, after allowing about 30 seconds for that sequence to run, press the Direction
FYS/PSA will continue, and within a few seconds, the engine will start and move
out on its own at the current throttle setting, in the same direction it was traveling
when you began the sequence. Once the bell turns off, the operator regains control
of the transformer's Bell and
Horn/Whistle buttons and can ring the bell or blow the
horn/whistle as usual.
