Tinplate No. 384 Steam Freight/Passenger Set with Proto-Sound® 2.0
Basic Operation
The Throttle knob controls how fast your train will travel.
!
Turn the throttle knob up ½-way, until the engine and caboose lights shine bright.
!
Put the engine into motion by pressing the Direction button on your transformer
once. (hold it for approximately 1 second)
If the engine does not begin to move as soon as you firmly press the Direction button,
you may not have sent enough voltage to the track to make the train move. Turn the
throttle up a bit higher until the train begins to move.
Operation Buttons
Throttle
To increase or decrease track voltage, and therefore train speed, turn the
throttle control knob. Turning it clockwise will increase voltage and speed, while turning
it counterclockwise will decrease voltage and speed. The engine will maintain the speed
you set after you release the throttle until you turn it again to change the voltage and
speed.
Horn/Whistle
- To sound the whistle, firmly press the Horn/Whistle button. The horn
will sound for as long as you continue to depress the button. It will stop when you
release the button.
Bell -
To sound the bell, firmly press the bell button. The bell sound will continue until
the bell button is firmly pressed a second time.
Direction
Your train is programmed to start in neutral. The train
will always cycle neutral-forward-neutral-reverse with each press
and release of the direction button. The engine is programmed to
restart in neutral each time the track voltage is turned off for 25
seconds or more.
Manual Volume Control
To adjust the volume of all sounds made by this engine, turn the master volume control
knob located under the engine clockwise to increase the volume and counter-clockwise to
