IntelliSound
The auxiliary sound module for locomotive decoders with the SUSI interface
Characteristics
Intelligent sound control with up to 40 seconds of original sound, coordinated
to the operating situation (i.e., speed, etc.) of the locomotive
Generates the operating (motor) sound of the locomotive, squealing brakes, incidental noises
while stationary (mechanical devices (e.g., air pumps, etc.), coal shovels etc.)
3 additionally adjustable noises such as whistle, bell, horn, uncoupling sound or door warning
signal
Sound changes as engine load changes, such as up/down grade operation; reaction to load
change can be adjusted
Adjustable volume and audio muting: the sound can be faded or turned off by function key,
e.g. during travels into and away from the station
Provisions for a wheel sensor (e.g., reed contact, etc.) for synchronized exhaust sounds with
steam locomotives
Efficient digital output circuitry renders sounds over 3 independent channels
Up to three modules can be connected to a locomotive decoder, e.g. for multi-engine locomotives
Comes with speaker and resonating chamber
Locomotive sounds can be downloaded; various sounds are available at www.uhlenbrock.de
Description
The Intellisound sound module is an auxiliary module for locomotive decoders with the
standardized SUSI interface, and can be identified by the appropriate logo.
The sound modules supply original, faithfully reproduced sounds of real locomotives. Using
intelligent sound control the sounds produced are adapted to match the locomotives actual
operating environment. Even when driving uphill and downhill, the sounds change to accurately
reflect prototypical operation. If the locomotive is stopped, the appropriate squealing brake
sound is produced. While stationary, different operating noises for the-respective type of
locomotive are produced by chance (coal shovels, compressed air). With diesel locomotives,
the engine startup and shutdown sounds can be heard when this function is switched on and
off. In addition to the driving (motor) sound of the locomotive, which can be switched on and off
using the appropriate function key, 3 more sounds can be triggered by function keys. Here,
depending upon the type of locomotive (as displayed in the table below), whistle, horn, bell, door
warning / closing signal or uncoupling sounds can be played.
If the locomotive travels out of the visible range of a model railway facility, e.g. into a shadow
station, then audio muting can be softly faded out by a special function key. By pressing the
function key again, the sound is gradually faded in, adapting itself to the existing driving conditions
(i.e., sound synchronized to the motor speed).
