Conventional AC Operation

When using conventional AC power, the engine will respond to changes in track

voltage. An increase in track voltage will increase the locomotive speed and a

reduction in track voltage will reduce the engine speed.

A short interruption (approximately 1 to 2 seconds) in the track voltage will cause the

engine to cycle in the sequence for each track voltage interruption (neutral – forward –

neutral – reverse) When power is first applied to the track, the locomotive will be

silent for 1-20 seconds and the headlight will be on, indicating the super capacitors are

charging (The super capacitors provide power to the sound system during direction

changes or intermittent drops in track power due to dirty track switches, when

operating in conventional mode). When the super capacitors are charged, all the lights

will come on and the engine sounds will start up. There should be no movement, as

the engine is in neutral. Causing a short interruption of track power by using the

direction button on the transformer, or by bringing the throttle to 0 volts and back

again, will change the sequence to the forward state. Then increasing the throttle will

begin to move the engine forward, and speed will increase as the throttle is advanced.

If there is another interruption in track power the sequence will change to the neutral

position again. The engine will remain in the neutral state until there is another

interruption in track power. The next interruption in track power will move the

sequence to the reverse state. The engine will now move in the reverse direction. If the

power interruption was accomplished by using the direction button and the throttle

position was not changed, the engine will run in the reverse direction at the same

speed that it was traveling in the forward position.

Subsequent interruptions in track power of 1-2 seconds will continue the sequence

rotation. If you happen to interrupt track power for longer than about 2 seconds, the

engine will begin its shut down sounds. If this occurs you can cycle the direction

sequence again to get back to the direction you wish to move and once the engine

starts moving its shut down sounds will stop playing (SEE PAGE 8 (direction cycle

phases)).

In conventional AC operation the whistle sound, the bell sound, PFA sounds and

other operational functions can be accessed if your transformer has a horn/whistle

button and a bell button. By using combinations of button presses, different

commands besides blowing the whistle and ringing the bell can be initiated.
