FREIGHT YARD SOUNDS (FYS)
ProtoSounds® comes equipped with operator controlled Freight Yard
Sounds, hereby referred to as FYS. This easy to use feature plays digitally
reproduced freight yard sounds whenever your engine stops on your layout
and is parked in the Neutral position. No additional wires or modifications
are needed on your layout to enjoy these amazing sound effects. The
sounds themselves are randomly generated and randomly “shuffled” on the
ProtoSounds® software chip. This gives the system the ability to produce
different sounds in a different order each time FYS is enabled. These
different sounds are heard each time you cycle the transformer throttle from
ON to OFF to ON in the same manner that you would cycle the throttle to
enter the various states of Forward, Neutral and Reverse. The entire FYS
sequence is designed to simulate the arrival, loading or unloading and
departure of a freight train in a freight yard. Each sequence is described in
more detail in the following sections.
ARMING & ACTIVATING FREIGHT YARD SOUNDS
Your ProtoSound® equipped engine features an operator controlled freight
yard sound set. Once activated, this easy-to-use feature plays the sound of
freight yard activities whenever the operator places the engine in the
Neutral position.
ARMING THE FREIGHT YARD FEATURE
Before freight yard sounds can be heard, ProtoSounds® must activate the
feature so that the next time the engine enters the Neutral position, the
sounds can play. The Feature can be activated one of two ways.
Option 1: If you are using a separate bell button controller to ring your bell
(like the Lionel® Railsounds® number 5906 bell activation button or a
transformer equipped with a bell button, like the MTH Z-4000), you can
activate the Feature by holding down the bell button for three or more
seconds (it doesn’t
matter if you are in
Forward, Netural or
Reverse). You will hear
the bell chiming turn on
and if you listen
carefully, you should
