"Editing the Locomotive", select the Modern GE Air Compressor by

pushing the knob and turning it until the display reads AP: 1.

Push the control knob to select this. The display will read "Save OK!".

14. Turn the control knob clockwise until the display reads SND1:000. Press

the knob to select this. Sound Configuration 1 (SND1) provides the

ability to select whether your Air Compressor and Cooling Fan comes on

automatically or with a function key. Let's set this engine up so that they

both come on and off automatically. Looking at the table provided in the

"Editing the Locomotive" section, press the knob twice to advance to the

third digit, turn the control knob until the display reads SND1: 003 and

push the control knob to select. The display will read "Save OK!".

This example is by no means a complete list of possible adjustments, but it

should help you familiarize yourself with some of the options available and

how the menu selections work. There are many other adjustments that can

be made, including Sound Configuration 2 (SND2), which allows you adjust

the automatic RPMs of the diesel engine to more closely match your engine's

movements. See page for information on this adjustment.

Copying Settings from an Existing Locomotive

To save time when adding multiple locomotives with similar configurations,

SurroundTraxx also offers a Copy Loco function, which applies the settings

from an existing locomotive to the new one you are adding. Copy Loco is the

fourth option on the Roundhouse menu.

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 COPY LOCO, and

push and release the knob to select it.

3. The display now reads FROM: 0000. This is the 'source' locomotive.

Enter the address of the locomotive whose settings you wish to copy to a

new locomotive address. When you are finished entering in this address,

the display will advance to TO: 0000.
