Tsunami Features
Tsunami Digital Sound Decoders have a great number of new features
designed to enhance your operating experience. Many features operate
similarly to previous SoundTraxx decoders, but some features will require a
little explanation.
Some of the enhancements include:
Decoder Features
• Supports extended address mode for assigning any locomotive number
up to 9,999.
• Supports advanced consist addressing.
• Supports ‘Operation Mode Programming’, allowing CVs to be changed
on the mainline without using a programming track.
Sound Features
There are many new sound effects (now over 20 sound effects!) and the
ability to adjust the sounds to suit your ear (and model) has been greatly
expanded and improved. You can now adjust the volume of each sound
effect individually with Tsunami’s built-in mixer!
The addition of a short whistle/horn effect will allow you to more easily
incorporate signaling practices into your operations. There is also the option
of replacing the short whistle function with an alternate whistle or horn for the
engine which carried two whistles or occasionally, a horn and a whistle.
For those with limited function keys, you may wish to enable the automatic
signal feature, which will activate Stop, Forward, Reverse and Grade
Crossing whistle signals automatically in response to train motion.
