Tuning your locomotive's performance (continued)
SOUND LEVEL
Press AUX1, 1 or 4 on your CAB-1 Remote Controller to raise and lower the volume of the
background locomotive sounds, such as RPMs and air release or let-offs. The horn, bell and
dialog will be unaffected. To set the maximum volume, we recommend that you adjust your
locomotive's volume control knob (see Figure 1 on page 7 for the location).
SETTING THE MAXIMUM SPEED
You may use your CAB-1 Remote Controller to set your locomotive's maximum speed. This
will prevent locomotives from derailing as a result of excessive speed.
1. With the Command reverse unit switch in the RUN position, address your locomotive by
pressing ENG and entering the ID#.
2. Press SET on the CAB-1 Remote Controller. The headlight will flash.
3. Get your locomotive moving at your desired maximum speed.
4. Press BOOST.
The maximum speed has been set. To clear this setting, press SET and then BOOST,
holding each button for one second.
SETTING THE MINIMUM SPEED
You may use your CAB-1 Remote Controller to set your locomotive's minimum, or stall, speed.
1. With the Command reverse unit switch in the RUN position, address your locomotive by
pressing ENG and entering the ID#.
2. Press SET on the CAB-1 Remote Controller. The headlight will flash.
3. Get your locomotive moving at your desired minimum speed.
4. Press SET again. The locomotive will stop.
The next time you throttle up, your locomotive will start at the speed you set. To clear this
setting, press SET twice, holding the button for one second each time.
