MOMENTUM
Simulate the labored performance of a
locomotive pulling a heavy load with
momentum. Press L, M, or H (located under
CAB-1’s removable panel) for light, medium,
or heavy momentum. The Command reverse
unit remembers the setting until you change
it. For delayed response, use H. For quick
response, choose L.
BOOSTING AND BRAKING
Use the BOOST and BRAKE command but-
tons for incremental control of speed
and
a
superior method for handling stops, starts,
and more. Plus, using BRAKE in the
Command environment gives you a bonus
RailSounds effect—the ultra-realistic sound
of squealing brakes.
STALL
Make your locomotive feel more responsive
by setting a “stall” voltage. Get your locomo-
tive moving, then press SET; the locomotive
will stop. The headlight will flash, indicating
it’s in the SET mode. Turn the throttle clock-
wise to get the locomotive moving, then
decrease speed until the locomotive just
stops. Then press SET again; the Command
reverse unit remembers the stall setting until
you change it. To clear stall, press SET twice,
holding it for one second each time.
HIGH VOLTAGE SETTING
Press ENG, the locomotive ID#, then press
SET; the locomotive’s headlight will flash. Get
your locomotive moving to the maximum
speed you want it to run, then press BOOST.
Use this to keep your locomotive from acci-
dentally being derailed at high speed.
To clear setting, press ENG,
the ID#, then immediately
press BOOST.
SOUND QUALITY
To achieve your preferred RailSounds mas-
ter volume level, use the volume control
knob located on the bottom of the tender (see
page 8). Turn the knob left or right to adjust
the volume to your liking.
For quick remote-control of volume
below
the master setting—like muting—use the
CAB-1 numeric keypad’s volume control.
Pressing AUX1 and 4 on the keypad lowers
overall RailSounds output.

S
peed control in Command mode is auto-
matic. Simply adjust the speed to the
desired level, and the Odyssey System will
maintain it over grades and with heavy loads.
