Passenger/Freight Announcements (PFA)
freight yard sounds that you can play when you pull into a station or a yard. 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
PFA sufficient time to run through each sequence.
• To cue the sound system to play the PFA, quickly but firmly tap the Bell button
once followed by 2 quick taps of the Horn 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 PFA. The reverse unit is temporarily disabled so that the train will not
move as you use the Direction button to trigger the sounds. Proto-Sound 3.0 has
disabled operator control over the Horn and Bell buttons until the full PFA
sequence is complete.
• After waiting about 30 seconds for that sequence to run, press the Direction
button again to trigger the second sequence of PFA.
• After about 30 seconds, press the Direction button again to trigger the third
PFA 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 PFA sequence. The
PFA will continue and within a few seconds the bell will begin ringing, then the
engine will begin moving 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 buttons and can ring the bell or
blow the Horn as usual.
Your engine is equipped with a sound package of either passenger station announcements or
