65003 American Diesel Sound Unit

BRAND NEW - Hard to find and out of production

This Sound Unit replicates the typical sounds of an American diesel locomotive. When the throttle is turned up slowly, you hear starting of the diesel engine, which then idles. The horn sounds when the loco starts: 2 long blasts when moving forward, 3 short blasts when reversing. After the loco stops, you hear the idling of the diesel motor. Then you hear the motor being turned off.

Operation:

Analog operation:

As soon as a low voltage is on the tracks, you hear the standing sounds. When track voltage increases, you hear the drive sounds, which are synchronized to the voltage in the tracks. Hint: You can program the drive sounds to start exactly when the loco starts. You need a PC and the 55045 MTS PC Decoder Programming Module or the 55015 Universal Remote.

DCC and Multi-Train System operation:

The Sound Unit is equipped with a factory- installed sound decoder for DCC and the LGB Multi-Train System. It can be used without modifications on analog or digital layouts. For operation with the Multi-Train System, the Sound Unit is programmed to loco address 03. For information on programming the loco address, see the instructions with your DCC or MTS system. When operating with the Multi-Train System, you hear the standing sounds while the loco is standing. When you turn up the MTS throttle, you hear the drive sounds synchronized to the drive steps. When operating with the Multi-Train System, you can remotely control the sound functions. Press the function buttons to control the following functions
