2. To start the video I, talk about Dynamic Digital Exhaust, what
it is and how it works. Developed by Soundtraxx, this feature
automatically controls the locomotive sounds when running up
and down grades, or when starting and stopping your locomo-
tives. The decoder senses the load on the motor and changes
the sounds accordingly.
The models chuff loud and work hard up the hills, and coast a
little quieter with some rod clank when running down grades.
Starting and stopping on level ground can net you other results,
as I show in this video. You set up the feature by programming
a little delay in CVs 3 and 4, and adjusting CVs 177 through 188.
You can print the instructions from the Soundtraxx web site for
this feature. It comes in all sound locomotives with Tsunami de-
coders, such as Walthers, Intermountain, Bachmann, Blackstone
and Athearn just to name a few.
