MTH AEM-7 Operating Manual

approximately 2.2 seconds during which you will hear the engine’s startup
sounds begin.  In order for ProtoSounds to properly initiate the system
check, do not advance the transformer throttle past 10 volts when you first
enter RESET, wait for the startup sounds to begin and then slowly turn the
transformer throttle to the off position and then back on again to enter the
forward phase.  Interrupting the power too quickly may cause the system to
re-enter RESET (signaled by two dings of the bell). Should this happen,
wait longer before interrupting the power to enter the Forward phase.

  ProtoSounds® comes with several programmable functions, including
Engine Volume Adjustment, Separate Bell Button Operation
(pre-programmed at the factory), Cab Chatter On/Off Control, ProtoCoupler 
On/Off Control and Horn-In-Neutral Operation.  Each of these features are
described in more detail later.   You will notice that when in RESET, your
engine will not respond to the whistle button with a horn blast or continuous 
bell ringing.  In fact, when in RESET and the whistle button is depressed,
only one single bell chime will be heard each time the whistle button is
pressed.  If you don’t want to configure or change your locomotive using
any of these programmable features, simply leave RESET and wait 2.2
seconds before interrupting the power to put the engine in forward.  After
you leave RESET, your engine will operate normally in all the direction
states of forward, neutral and reverse.   

HORN OPERATION

  Your MTH AEM-7 ProtoSound-equipped engine is equipped with a digital 
recording of a horn.  The horn sound can be activated anytime the engine is
in forward or reverse by pressing the whistle button on your transformer.
The horn will continue to blow as long as the whistle button is depressed.
The horn will not function in RESET and must be configured through a
RESET option to allow the horn to work when the engine is in neutral.  See
page 17 for information on horn programming in the 

Using RESET To

Program ProtoSounds® 

section of this manual. 

BELL OPERATION

  Your MTH AEM-7 ProtoSound-equipped engine is equipped with a digital 
recording of an actual electric bell.   The bell can be turned on or off with
any separate bell button, like the Lionel® Railsounds® No. 5906 Bell
Button, by simply pushing the button.   If you don’t have a separate bell
button, the bell can be controlled through your  transformer’s whistle button
