Tips on Using PSA/FYS

•You can terminate PSA/FYS at any time by turning off power to the track for 15 
seconds.

•You do not have to be in Forward to use PSA/FYS. At the conclusion of the full 
sequence, the train will pull away from the station in whatever direction you were 
going when you activated the feature.

•You can use PSA/FYS even if you are double-heading with another engine. If the 
second engine is not equipped with Proto-Sound 2.0, you must remember not to leave 
the throttle at a high voltage level once you have stopped the engine to run the 
PSA/FYS. Otherwise, the engine without PSA/FYS will begin vibrating on the track 
as its motors strain to move the train, since they cannot be automatically disabled 
during the PSA cycle (or if an original Proto-Sound engine, PSA/FYS are triggered 
differently and that engine's motor-disable feature will not be active when you run 
PSA/FYS in Proto-Sound 2.0).

•PSA/FYS can be triggered from Neutral.  It will operate the same as if triggered while 
in motion except that, at the conclusion of the PSA/FYS, the engine will depart in the 
next direction of travel, as opposed to the direction it was traveling before entering 
Neutral.

Proto-Coupler® Operation

This locomotive is equipped with one or more coil-wound Proto-Couplers for remote 
uncoupling action.  Because Proto-Couplers are controlled through the Proto-Sound 2.0 
microprocessor, they do not require an uncoupling track section or modification to your 
layout to function. You can fire a coupler from neutral or while in motion.  Use the 
code shown below (and in the chart on p. 7) to fire the coupler(s).

Rear Coupler:

To fire the rear coupler, quickly tap the Bell button once followed by three quick taps of 
the Horn button, allowing approximately ½ second to lapse between each quick button 
press.  The sound of the liftbar and air line depletion will play, and the knuckle will be 
released.

Front Coupler:

To fire the front coupler (if your engine has one), quickly tap the Bell button once 
followed by four quick taps of the Horn button, allowing approximately ½ second to 
lapse between each quick button press.  The sound of the liftbar and air line depletion 
will play, and the knuckle will be released.
