Characteristics Intelligent sound control with up to 40 seconds of original sound coordinated to the operating situation ie speed etc of the locomotive Generates the operating motor sound of the locomotive squealing brakes incidental noises while stationary mechanical devices eg air pumps etc 3 in addition adjustable noises such as whistle bell horn uncoupling sound or door warning signal Sound changes as engine load changes such as updown grade operation reaction to load change can be adjusted The Smart Start When starting the locomotive the sound module stops the decoder from operating until the actual starting of the vehicle synchronises with the sound of the motor The locomotive does not move until the very starting sound begins Adjustable volume & audio muting the sound can be faded or turned off by function key e g during travels into & away from a shadow station Efficient digital output circuitry renders sounds over 3 independent channels Up to three modules can be connected to a locomotive decoder e g for multiengine locomotives Comes with speaker & resonating chamber Locomotive sounds can be downloaded various sounds are available at wwwuhlenbrockde Description The Intellisound sound module is an auxiliary module for locomotive decoders with the standardized SUSI interface & can be identified by the appropriate logo The sound modules supply original faithfully reproduced sounds of real locomotives Using intelligent sound control the sounds produced are adapted to match the locomotives actual operating environment Even when driving uphill & downhill the sounds change to accurately reflect prototypical operation When the locomotive is supposed to start the sound module will stop the motor from working via the decoder until the actual starting of the vehicle synchronises with the sound of the motor A diesel locomotive for instance roars right before it starts The decoder stops the train from moving until the roaring is over & the motor sound begins If the locomotive is stopped the appropriate squealing brake sound is produced While stationary different operating noises for therespective type of locomotive are produced by chance coal shovels compressed air With diesel locomotives the engine startup & shutdown sounds can be heard when this function is switched on & off In addition to the driving motor sound of the locomotive which can be switched on & off using the appropriate function key 3 more sounds can be triggered by function keys Here depending upon the type of locomotive as displayed in the table below whistle horn bell door warning closing signal or uncoupling sounds can be played If the locomotive travels out of the visible range of a model railway facility eg into a shadow station then audio muting can be softly faded out by a special function key By pressing the function key again the sound is gradually faded in adapting itself to the existing driving conditions i e sound synchronized to the motor speed 36190 PIKO Sound Modul Installation of a Sound modul Connecting the SUSIinterface Insert the plug with the red blue grey & black cable into the appropriate socket of your locomotives motor decoder The sound module receives its power & data from the decoder Loudspeaker Each speaker needs a resonator It is sometimes possible to use the locomotive body or the wagon body as resonator If this is not possible then please use the included plastic resonator If using the plastic resonator please make sure that it is glued airtight to the speaker Please do close with glue also the hole of the speaker cables as well as any other mounting hole present on the speakerresonator The speaker is to be mounted inside the locomotive so that it faces the widest possible aperture towards the outside e g close to a locomotive window behind an open grid etc description Soundkit G BR 182 scale G type of product Soundmodul mit Lautsprecher ...
