A Diesel Configuration Example
Let’s add an AC4400CW locomotive to our roster. Its road number is 4387
and it has a Nathan M3 airhorn.
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.
2. Turn the control knob clockwise until the display reads ADD LOCO. Push
and release the knob to select it.
3. The display will now read TYPE: STM. Turn the knob clockwise until the
display reads TYPE: DIESEL. Push the control knob to select.
4. Locomotive address 0003 will appear, with the zero furthest to the left
flashing. Turn the control knob until the zero is replaced by the number 4
and push in the knob to select it as the first digit of the new address.
Then turn the knob until the number 3 shows as the second digit in the
display, and so on until the number 4387 has been selected.
5. Push the control knob to save this into the roster.
6. You will be prompted to confirm (Y or N) and the display now returns to
the ADD LOCO function; turn the control knob clockwise until the display
reads EDIT LOCO. Push the control knob to select this option.
7. The display will now indicate EDIT: followed by a flashing locomotive
address. Only the locomotive numbers stored in your roster will be
available. Turn the control knob clockwise to locate locomotive 4361 and
push to select it for editing.
8. The display will read VOLUME and the current setting for this locomotive,
which will be the default diesel value until we change it. (For the
purposes of our example, we'll skip volume until we have made our
other changes.) Turn the control knob clockwise (several turns) until the
display reads EX SEL: 0 (Exhaust Select). Push the control knob to
select this.
9. Since our locomotive is an AC4400CW, we'll want to change the default
prime mover to a General Electric FDL-16 prime mover (The SoundTraxx
website has a great deal of helpful information regarding selection of
appropriate sounds for your model). Using table in the "Editing the
Locomotive" section of the Configuration Guide, turn the control knob to
match the value displayed (5) for a General Electric FDL-16 prime mover
