TRANSFORMER WIRING CHART
Proto-Sound® is designed to work with any standard AC transformer that
uses a "Pure Sine-Wave" format. The chart below lists the many Lionel®
compatible transformers, such as the Lionel KW or ZW models. In
addition, the chart details how the terminals on these compatible
transformers should be attached to your layout. The Trainmaster system
from Lionel® (marked with an asterisk below) will not function correctly
with Proto-Sound® without disrupting the sound effects. Therefore,
whenever Proto-Sound® senses that the Trainmaster system is being used,
it automatically disables Proto-Sound® sound effects. The operator retains
control over the engine, but no sound effects will play.

*Proto-Sound needs over 14 volts of power to work properly. Overloading or using in-line
accessories with this transformer may lower the peak voltage below Proto-Sound's
requirements.
