PSA Remedy
Once in PSA, the engine doesn’t
go into reverse.
When the PSA enters its last
sequence the bell automatically
comes on.
When PSA is enabled, pressing
the whistle and bell buttons has no
effect.
I push the direction button but the
next sound clip in the sequence
does not play or the engine does
not come out of PSA after fourth
press of the direction button.
So that PSA effects can be as
realistic as possible,
PSA
Proto-
Sound 2.0 disables the
reversing unit whenever is
enabled. This way the engine
remains still at its stop as the
operator cycles through the
FYS sequences.
PSA is programmed to start
ringing the bell at that point. After
approximately 12 seconds it will
automatically turn off.
Because PSA must control various
effects in each sequence, Proto-
Sound 2.0 takes control of these
sound effects until you exit PSA.
Each PSA clip must play for
approx. 30 seconds before PSA
will advance to the next step in the
PSA cycle. Wait at least 30
seconds in each PSA sound clip
before pressing the direction
button.
Proto-Sound 2.0 Operating Instructions
This manual contains the operating instructions for Proto-Sound 2.0 in
conventional mode only. Instructions for accessing DCS command mode features
accompany the DCS Remote Control System equipment.
Proto-Sound 2.0 features are activated by sequences of Bell and Horn button
pushes described below. Please read the full descriptions of each feature before
using it. To use these buttons to activate features rather than to blow the horn or
ring the bell, you should tap the buttons very quickly with a ½-second pause
between button presses. You may need to practice your timing to make this work
smoothly.
