RailKing L-1 Mikado Steam Engine
FYS
Remedy
Once in FYS, the engine doesn’t go
into reverse.
When the FYS enters its last
sequence the bell automatically
comes on.
When FYS is enabled, pressing the
whistle and bell buttons has no effect.
I push the direction button but the next
sound clip in the sequence does not
play or the engine does not come out
of FYS after fourth press of the
direction button.
So that FYS effects can be as realistic
as possible,
Proto-Sound 2.0
disables the reversing unit
whenever FYS is enabled. This
way the engine remains still at its
stop as the operator cycles
through the FYS sequences.
FYS is programmed to start
ringing the bell at that point. After
approximately 12 rings of the bell,
it will automatically turn off.
Because FYS must control various
effects in each sequence, Proto-
Sound 2.0 takes control of these
sound effects until you exit FYS.
Each FYS clip must play for approx.
30 seconds before FYS will advance
to the next step in the FYS cycle.
Wait at least 30 seconds in each FYS
sound clip before pressing the
direction button.
Compatibility

system, including M.T.H.’s RealTrax
®

track. It is also compatible with most standard AC transformers. (See page 18
