Keep in mind that once you have selected either Steam or Diesel, you will not

be able to switch to the other. For example, if you select locomotive 4163 as

a steam engine, you will not be able to now edit this as a diesel locomotive.

You must delete this address and start over if you've selected the wrong

engine TYPE for this road number.

EDIT LOCO: Customizing the Locomotive

Once you have a Steam or Diesel locomotive in your roundhouse, you can

customize the sounds and features using the Edit Loco menu. EDIT LOCO is

the third function in the Roundhouse menu. The Edit Locomotive settings in

the Roundhouse allow you to:

Select the appropriate prototype sound files for exhausts, whistles, bells,

and other sound effects.

Adjust the relative volume levels of various locomotive sounds.

Control the amount of echo/reverb applied to a given sound function.

Adjust a locomotive’s scale speed.

Lock CVs to prevent changes.

Adjust a locomotive's function mapping

You may adjust these settings either from EDIT LOCO (in the Roundhouse

menu) or in most cases from a DCC cab using operations mode

programming, with locomotive dispatched and the CV Lock OFF (Page 3:6

contains a complete list of CVs that can be changed in this manner)

.

1. From System Monitor mode, push and release the control knob. The

display reads ROUNDHOUSE; push and release the control knob again

to select it. The display will read LIST LOCOS.

2. Turn the control knob until it reads EDIT LOCO. Push the control knob

to select this option. Turn the control knob until the desired locomotive

address is displayed and push the control knob to select it for editing.
