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 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.

ACTIVATING FREIGHT YARD SOUNDS

Your ProtoSounds® 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 the 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® No. 5906 bell activation button) you can

activate the feature by pressing and holding the bell button for three seconds

or longer (it doesn’t matter if you are in forward, neutral or reverse). You

will hear the bell

chiming turn on and if

you listen carefully you

should hear an air

release sound after three

seconds have passed at

which time you can

Put Engine In Neutral,
