Sound decoder in a Gondola.

Tsunami.
Using them as a sound-only decoder

Many folks decide to use these fine sound decoders for their sound generating capabilities and, perhaps, lighting effects. Here are some suggestions:

    *
      Motor - If you put a 100 ohm 1/2 watt resistor between the gray and orange motor wires or contacts, you can then get acknowledgments back when you program.
    *
      If you set the Tsunami for Speed Table operation with the USER SPEED TABLE selected and set all speed steps to zero, then you won't be using your DCC power to heat up the resistor when you are running! To do this, read CV 29 and add 16 to that value and write the result back into CV 29. Then set CV25 = 16 and set all the CVs from CV 68 through CV 94 to zero.
