Tips on Using PSA
•You can terminate PSA at any time by turning off power to the track for 15 seconds.
•You do not have to be in Forward to use PSA. At the conclusion of the full sequence,
the train will pull away from the station in whatever direction you were going when you
activated the feature.
•You can use PSA even if you are double-heading with another engine. If the second
engine is not equipped with Proto-Sound 2.0, you must remember not to leave the
throttle at a high voltage level once you have stopped the engine to run the PSA.
Otherwise, the engine without PSA will begin vibrating on the track as its motors strain
to move the train, since they cannot be automatically disabled during the PSA cycle (or
if an original Proto-Sound engine, PSA are triggered differently and that engine's
motor-disable feature will not be active when you run PSA in Proto-Sound 2.0).
•PSA can be triggered from Neutral. It will operate the same as if triggered while in
motion except that, at the conclusion of the PSA, the engine will depart in the next
direction of travel, as opposed to the direction it was traveling before entering Neutral.
Proto-Coupler® Operation
This locomotive is equipped with one or more coil-wound Proto-Couplers for remote
uncoupling action. Because Proto-Couplers are controlled through the Proto-Sound 2.0
microprocessor, they do not require an uncoupling track section or modification to your
layout to function. You can fire a coupler from neutral or while in motion. Use the
code shown below (and in the chart on p. 9) to fire the coupler(s).
Rear Coupler:
To fire the rear coupler, quickly tap the Bell button once followed by three quick taps of
the Horn button, allowing approximately ½ second to lapse between each quick button
press. The sound of the liftbar and air line depletion will play, and the knuckle will be
released.
Front Coupler:
To fire the front coupler (if your engine has one), quickly tap the Bell button once
followed by four quick taps of the Horn button, allowing approximately ½ second to
lapse between each quick button press. The sound of the liftbar and air line depletion
will play, and the knuckle will be released.
