Master Volume; Couplers; Forward/Reverse Signal; Crossing Signal - M.T.H. Premier UP 4-6-6-4 Challenger Operator's Manual

Master Volume

F6 – Master Volume
There are 10 volume levels. Pressing F6 twice (toggling on then off) raises the Master
Volume one level. The Master Volume loops. That is, if you go past the 10th level it
will loop back around to the 1st or lowest volume level.

Couplers

Your MTH PS3.0-equipped engine comes with remotely controlled Proto-Couplers.
They can be fired using your DCC handheld.
F7 – Front Coupler
Pressing F7 twice (toggling on then off) will fire your Front Coupler
F8 – Rear Coupler
Pressing F8 twice (toggling on then off) will fire your Rear Coupler

Forward/Reverse Signal

Just like a real engine, you can announce the direction of intended movement using
your DCC handheld and F9 and F10.
F9 – Forward Signal
Pressing F9 twice (toggling on then off) will sound the Forward Signal. This is two
whistle/horn blasts
F10 – Reverse Signal
Pressing F10 twice (toggling on then off) will sound the Reverse Signal. This is three
whistle/horn blasts
Grade Crossing Signal
Again, just like a real engine, you can trigger the Grade Crossing Signal on your engine.
This is two long, one short, one long whistle/horn blast.
F11 – Grade Crossing Signal
Pressing F11 twice (toggling on then off) will sound your Crossing Signal.
Smoke (if Equipped)
F12 – Smoke On/Off
Enabling F12 will turn the smoke unit on. Disabling F12 will turn your smoke unit off.
F13 – Smoke Volume
There are three smoke volume levels in your MTH PS3.0-equipped engine –
Low/Med/High. The default for this is set to High. You can adjust the smoke output
(amount of smoke the generator puts out) by pressing the F13 button twice. This sets the
level to the next step. For example, if you are currently at the High smoke output level,
pressing F13 twice (toggling it on then off) will set the smoke volume to Low. Pressing F13
twice again will set it to Medium and so on.
