Throttle Features
Tsunami Digital Sound Decoders have greatly improved throttle features
built into our Hyperdrive system. With the addition of these features, you
will be able to better eliminate motor noise, better control your locomotive
speed under varying conditions and adjust for differences between various
manufacturers’ models.
• Supports 14, 28 and 128 speed step modes.
• Programmable acceleration, deceleration
and starting voltage for prototypical starting and stopping.
• Use of standard and alternate speed tables.
• Load Compensation
• Silent High Frequency Motor Drive
Lighting Features
All of our Hyperlight effects are available in our Tsunami decoders. One new
addition, the Dyno-Light, provides the missing element in the operation of the
Dynamo, or steam generator. This mimics the effect of the gradual increase
in brightness as the generator spools up and supplies power to the headlight.
The new LED Compensation will adjust the lighting output level to account
for the visual differences in your lighting effects when using an LED rather
than an incandescent bulb.
• Four function outputs for headlight and backup light or other effects
• Supports ”Rule 17” operation or automatic direction control
• 100mA Current Sink Capacity
• Each output may be programmed with our Hyperlight™ Lighting effects:
