Silent DCC Startup

[Bennieboy]

So I have a couple DCC Soundvalue locomotives and frankly, they're awesome. The only problem is that when I startup my DCC system, they both make the idling noises while my other DCC locomotives do not. Is there some way I can adjust the CVs so that they're silent upon DCC startup like my other locomotives?

Check the CV list. It is right in the DCC page in the Bachmann site. What DCC system do you use?

I use NCE PowerCab.

I have used the Power Cab and it is a good system. I have on;ly used the HO Spectrum locos with onboard sound and Soundtraxx that I put in. Never Sound Value. The issue was never a bother for me.
Below is a link to the CV list for Sound Value if you do not have it. I have seen the question and answer here before but do not remember the solution.

The thing is I want them silent by default when i give my layout power instead of having to manually go in amd silence each locomotive every time i want to run a session

Since you are not getting any other responses, go to the trains.com forums and look for the model railroader section. Scroll down a little to Electronics and DCC. Sign up and join. Ask the same question. Very active forums. I have belong for some years. There may be some delay until you can become active. Just the way they operate but many members.

Here is a discussion about it. I'm no decoder whiz so I'm just reading what they are saying. Apparently CV113 will do it but Sound Value doesn't have CV113.

Here's another one. This is what one guy said -
"Regarding Bachmann — There are two versions of SoundTraxx Sound Value decoders,
1) SoundTraxx CV 113 Quiet Mode Time-Out Period is not a feature of the "Sound Value" decoder factory installed in some Bachmann locomotives.
2) SoundTraxx CV 113 Quiet Mode Time-Out Period is a feature of the "Sound Value – Econami" decoder factory installed in some Bachmann locomotives.
