The brake light threshold determines how strongly the vehicle must be decelerated
before the brake light is switched on.
The higher these thresholds are set, the more must the vehicle be decelerated in
order to trigger the associated functions.
In two engine mode you can also define a threshold for cornering squeak. The higher
the value is, the more the steering must be moved to trigger the cornering squeak.
Automatic driving sound activation:
As an option you can select an automatic driving sound activation (see page 28). The
engine sound always switches on automatically, as soon as you move the
accelerator shortly while standing. After an adjustable time the engine sound is
turning off automatically.
Time for warmstart:
If both sounds “Engine coldstart sound“ and “Engine warmstart sound“ are used, the
time can be specified which determines how long the driving sound had to be turned
off in order to play the coldstart sound instead of the warmstart sound after a new
start.
Speed steps/gears
Gears forwards / backwards:
Here you can choose how many different driving sounds or gears, the engine sound
should have.
When the option "Play change sound parallel to engine sound" is activated, the
driving sound changes immediately from the old to the new engine sound and the
change sound is played simultaneously during the change. If this option is not
activated, the old engine sound stops, the change-sound is played and after that the
new engine sound starts.
As an additional option, it is possible to skip the gearshift or the downshift through all
gears. If this option is activated, the engine sound will directly jump to FG1 when you
stop the model.
Zero point deadband threshold:
When your vehicle is standing, i.e. the drive motors are not running the sound
module should generate the idle sound. If it occasionally plays the driving sound
instead, then this value should be raised slightly.
On the other hand, if the idle sound continues to play when the vehicle is no longer
stationary, then this value can be reduced slightly. Before adjusting please check first
if the neutral position is set correctly!
Stationary/motion/gear hysteresis:
When the vehicle is moving very slowly and the sound constantly alternates between
idle and running sound, then this value should be raised slightly.
Also if the engine sound alternates steadily between 2 speed steps/gears while
driving, this value should be raised slightly, too.
