Digital Control
In standard analog DC mode, your model still operates under digital control. The
PS 3 advance speed control system converts track voltage into digital speed
commands. Your model will run smoothly and consistently at any speed
regardless of load, hills, or curves. If you are a DCC user, you'll quickly learn to
appreciate the precision of our speed control and linear speed curve. DCS users
will enjoy the added benefits of controlling speeds in increments of 1 scale mile
per hour displayed on DCS controllers or easily changing acceleration and
deceleration rates independently without any discussion of bits or bytes.
To be
clear, DCS is NOT DCC.
Lights
As you read on, you'll notice there are no instructions for replacing light bulbs in
your diesel. That's because there aren't any. We use specially designed and
controlled LEDs to create realistic lighting effects that occur automatically.
Again, NO PROGRAMMING!! Just come to a stop and watch as the headlight
dims automatically in accordance with rule 17. Of course, as you pull away, the
headlight returns to it's fully bright, yet warm, glow. We even included a light in
the cab so the engineers can see to do their jobs!
More…
In analog DC operation, just flip the track polarity or direction switch at any
speed and watch your Engine gradually come to stop, turn on the appropriate
directional lighting, and smoothly accelerate back up to speed. No other HO
locomotive has features like these. There are so many more things to learn and
enjoy about M.T.H. HO Engines, we could write a book. But, that's no fun. So,
if you haven't already done so, flip to the Quick Start Guide and let's run your
new engine!!
