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, press the PFA Button on the remote.
!
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
Horn/Whistle
buttons and can ring the bell or blow the
horn/whistle as usual.
Tips on Using FYS/PSA
!
You can terminate FYS/PSA at any time by pressing the PFA Button on the remote.
!
You do not have to be in Forward to use FYS/PSA. 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.
!
FYS/PSA can be triggered from Neutral. It will operate the same as if triggered
while in motion except that, at the conclusion of the FYS/PSA, 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.
