Refer to Figure 6 on page 11 for the location of the Transformer features listed in this section.

THROTTLE

Push the throttle forward to increase track power. The markings on the throttle approxi-

mate the percentage of full power. For more realism, push the throttle slowly to gradually
increase or decrease the speed of the locomotive. Slowing or stopping the locomotive with the
throttle instead of the DIRECTION button will allow you to continue in the same direction
when you increase the throttle again. To achieve this effect, reduce the throttle to the point
that the locomotive stops moving, but don’t completely turn off the throttle. That way, your
train won’t sequence into neutral.

DIRECTION

The DIRECTION control button interrupts track power to activate the reverse unit in your

locomotive. Your locomotive will not respond to this button when the reverse unit switch is in
the OFF position.

WHISTLE

The WHISTLE button will activate your locomotive’s whistle. The sound will continue until

the button is released. No external sound activation buttons are needed.

BELL

The BELL button will activate the bell sounds on locomotives equipped with this feature. Press

and hold the BELL button for two to three seconds to begin the sounds; press and hold the button
again to turn off the ringing. 

Your locomotive is not equipped with bell sounds.

Do not activate horns, whistles, or bells on RailSounds-equipped locomotives until
track power has been turned on for a few moments, or a continuous horn/whistle or
bell sound may occur. To correct this problem, simply turn off the CW-80
Transformer, then turn it back on.

POWER-ON INDICATOR

The green light will remain on during normal operation. The green light will begin to

flash if you exceed the power limit of the Transformer. The unit will allow you to momentarily
exceed the power limit, but power will be gradually reduced until the problem is corrected.
The benefit is that the Transformer will not instantly turn off.
