Because track power is off, a battery is required for this sequence to
function. See Figure 3 page 11 for battery installation.

TrainMaster Command Control operations
Using the LEGACY RailSounds sound system in the TrainMaster Command Control
environment
T
o access the LEGACY RailSounds sound system features listed below, you must
operate your locomotive in the TrainMaster Command Control environment. The
CAB-1 Remote Controller/Command Base is required to activate these features.
For proper operation of the LEGACY RailSounds sound system during track
power interruptions and for the locomotive shutdown sequence, you must
install a nine-volt alkaline battery. Refer to Figure 3 on page 11.
In the TrainMaster Command Control environment, you will experience the features of
the LEGACY RailSounds sound system listed below.
•
Eight
levels
of diesel motor RPM. Your CAB-1 Remote Controller throttle
automatically determines the level of the diesel motor RPM. You may also set the
RPM sounds to a particular level manually, using your CAB-1 Remote Controller.
•
MultiHorn
. A different horn sound at different speeds—a LEGACY RailSounds
sound system exclusive.
•
Mechanical
bell
. Press BELL on your CAB-1 Remote Controller to begin the effect,
then press BELL a second time to discontinue the effect.
•
Squealing
brakes
. Press the BRAKE button and listen for the squealing of the
locomotive’s brakes as the locomotive slows down.
•
Coupler
release
sounds
. Use your CAB-1 Remote Controller to release an
ElectroCoupler, and you get the sounds of the coupler opening.
•
CrewTalk
dialog
and TowerCom announcements. Use your CAB-1 Remote Controller
to trigger conversations between the dispatcher and locomotive engineer. You’ll
hear “hold for clearance,” “cleared for departure,” and many other exchanges. See
page 26.
•
Shutdown sequence
. When you turn off track power, you have two seconds to power
up again after you hear the reverse unit reset sound. If you do not restore power,
you will hear the realistic diesel shutdown sequence. Because track power is off, a
nine-volt alkaline battery is required for this sequence to function. Refer to Figure
3 on page 11. You may also trigger the shutdown sequence without powering down
the track using the AUX1, 5 command when the locomotive is stopped and the
diesel RPM sounds are at their lowest level.
