MTH GP38-2 Operating Instructions
USING “RESET" TO PROGRAM
PROTOSOUNDS®
Proto-Sound® is equipped with several programmable features which are
accessed in the RESET state by moving the transformer throttle up and
down between full voltage and low voltage (8 volts) without shutting the
transformer off completely. Each time this is done you advance, one
feature at a time, through the available options. An air-release sound is
heard each time the throttle is advanced and returned. In addition, there are
special sounds to tell you what RESET position you are in
ENTERING RESET OPTIONS
ProtoSound® is equipped with a few programmable features that are
accessed in the RESET state by moving the transformer throttle up and
down between full voltage and low voltage (6 to 8 volts) without shutting
the transformer off completely. Each time this is done you advance, one
feature at a time, through the available options. An air-release sound is
heard each time the throttle is advanced. In addition, there are special
sounds to tell you what RESET position you are in.
For example, if you want to select Feature 2, you put the engine in RESET,
and move the throttle up and down from full throttle to low two times.
After the second advance, you will hear two “clinks" indicating that the
computer is now in Feature 2. Advance the throttle again and you will hear
three “clinks" for Feature 3. Advance it two more times and you will hear a
“clank" indicating that you are now in Feature 5. Advance the throttle two
more times and you will hear a “clank" and two “clinks" indicating Feature
7. ((5 throttle advancements = 1 clank) + (2 throttle advancements = 2
clinks)). “Clank + “Clink" + “Clink" = Feature 7. You can advance the
throttle as quickly as you like (though you may not hear the air-release
sounds) and the computer will still remember the number of times the
throttle is advanced by
playing back the number
of “Clinks" and “Clanks"
to confirm the feature
you’ve selected.
