Airhorn/Whistle Volume
CV 129 sets the airhorn/whistle volume and may be programmed with any
value from 0 to 255. The default is 225.
Bell Control
By default, the SoundCar uses F1 to control the bell sound effect. The
following CVs allow you to adjust and control the bell:
CV 114, Bell Ring Rate
CV 130, Bell Volume
CV 227, Bell Select
Bell Ring Rate
CV 114 may be programmed with a setting from 0 to 15, allowing you to
adjust the bell ring rate over 16 steps to simulate the sound of an air‑rung or
hand‑rung bell. A setting of 0 yields the fastest ring rate (like an air‑ringer),
while higher values produce increasingly slower ring rates. The default value
for CV 114 is 3, but you can always experiment with other values to get the
best overall sound effect for your specific model.
Bell Volume
CV 130 controls the bell volume and may be set to any value from 0 to 255.
The default is 64.
Bell Select
CV 227 allows you to select between the SoundCar’s three available bells:
cast, electronic and gong. To select a particular bell, simply program CV 227
with the appropriate value from 0 to 2 as indicated in Table H.

effect to be controlled by pressing F9. If you prefer the sound to always be on
