RKS FP-45 Diesel Engine with PS-2
8
Freight Yard Sounds (FYS) or
Passenger Station Announcements (PSA):
Your engine is equipped with a sound package of either freight yard or passenger
station sounds that you can play.
Each sequence described below will play as
long as it is left on, randomly generating sounds, but be sure to allow
approximately 30 seconds between the button pushes described below to
allow the FYS/PSA sufficient time to run through each sequence.
!
To cue the sound system to play the FYS/PSA, quickly but firmly tap the Bell
button once followed by 2 quick taps of the Horn/Whistle button while the
engine is moving. Tap the buttons quickly but allow approximately ½ second
between each press.
!
Press the Direction button once to stop the engine. This will trigger the first
sequence of FYS/PSA. The reverse unit is temporarily disabled so that the
train will not move as you use the Direction button to trigger the sounds, and
Proto-Sound 2.0 has disabled operator control over the Horn/Whistle and Bell
buttons until the full FYS/PSA sequence is complete.
!
After waiting about 30 seconds for that sequence to run, press the Direction
button again to trigger the second sequence of FYS/PSA.
!
After about 30 seconds, press the Direction button again to trigger the third
FYS/PSA sequence.
!
Again, after allowing about 30 seconds for that sequence to run, press the
Direction button one more time to trigger the fourth and final FYS/PSA
sequence. The FYS/PSA will continue, and within a few seconds, the engine
will start and move out on its own at the current throttle setting, in the same
direction it was traveling when you began the sequence. Once the bell turns
off, the operator regains control of the transformer's Bell and Whistle buttons
