SoundTraxx Tsunami Installation - Manual (Page 4)

Tsunami Installation Guide Page 1
All Aboard!
Overview
Congratulations on the purchase of your SoundTraxx™ Tsunami™ Digital
Sound Decoder™. Properly installed, your Digital Sound Decoder (DSD)
will provide all the pleasures of high quality, digital onboard sound and
the benefits of today’s DCC (Digital Command Control) technology. With
the proper tools, basic modeling skills and common sense, equipping a
locomotive with sound is not difficult. It may, however, be a new experience
for you, and you will find that successive installations will go more quickly
than the first. Please note that while each decoder is tested thoroughly
before it is shipped, we cannot control the correctness or quality of the
installation. It is imperative that you follow the directions, and never remove
the protective heat shrink from the decoder; there are no adjustments or user
serviceable parts and this will void your warranty.
If this is your first decoder installation, this Installation Guide will give you
step-by-step instructions for a successful first installation. The User’s Guide
will walk you through the various aspects of programming your Tsunami
decoder, as well as some tips on troubleshooting. Once you’ve had some
experience using and programming your decoder, the Tsunami Technical
Reference will provide a list of all the CVs available for use with Tsunami
decoders. This reference also explains their exact function and make-up for
those who wish to have a complete reference for advanced programming
techniques.
Technical bulletins covering various topics are also published from time to
time, and these, along with the Technical Reference may be downloaded
free of charge from our website at www.soundtraxx.com.
