Premier Dreyfuss Hudson Steam Locomotive

Volume

Remedy

The sounds seem distorted, especially when 
the Horn or bell is activated.

No Sound

Proto-Sound 2.0 volume is set too high.  Turn the 
volume control knob on the bottom of the chassis 
counter-clockwise to reduce the volume.
Volume is set too low, adjust volume control knob 
on the bottom of the chassis clockwise to increase 
the volume or check connector to speaker.

Battery

Remedy

The engine will not leave the initial neutral 
setting.

I get no sounds when the engine shifts 
between directions. 
After I turn off my tranJ1eormer, my engine 
continues to make sounds before quitting.

Check to be sure the battery is installed and fully 
charged.  See the "Self-Charging Battery Back-
Up" section.
The battery may be dead or need to be charged.  
See the "Self-Charging Battery Back-Up" section.
Proto-Sound 2.0 is designed to continue to sound 
for a few seconds after power to the track has 
been shut off to allow for a more realistic shut-
down.

Lock-out

Remedy

I can't get the engine to run after I power up 
the tranJ1eormer.  It sits still with the diesel 
and compressor sounds running.
The engine won't lock into forward, neutral, 
or reverse.

The engine maybe locked into the neutral 
position.  Follow the procedure in the "Lock into a 
Direction" section to unlock the engine's direction.
Engine speed must be below 10 scale mph 
(approx. 10 volts or less in conventional mode). 

PSA

Remedy

Once in PSA, the engine doesn’t go into 
reverse.

When the PSA enters its last sequence the 
bell automatically comes on

When PSA is enabled, pressing the whistle 
and bell has no effect

I push the direction button but the next 
sound clip in the sequence does not play or 
the engine does not come out of PSA after 
fourth press of the direction button.

So that PSA effects can be as realistic as 
possible, Proto-Sound 2.0 disables the 
reversing unit whenever PSA is enabled.  
This way the engine remains still at its stop 
as the operator cycles through the PSA 
sequences.
PSA is programmed to start ringing the bell 
at that point.  After approximately 12 
seconds, it will automatically turn off.
Because PSA must control various effects in 
each sequence, Proto-Sound 2.0 takes 
control of these sound effects until you exit 
PSA
Each PSA clip must play for aprox. 30 
seconds before PSA will advance to the next 
step in the PSA cycle.  Wait at least 30 
seconds in each PSA sound clip before 
pressing the direction button.
