• Equipped with DCC On Board technology, which allows you to digitally control the direction, speed, and lighting of this locomotive using Bachmann's E-Z Command Digital Command Control System (bac44902), or any NMRA-compliant DCC system.
• The decoder itself features the following: * 2 and 4 digit addresses * advanced consisting * dimmable lighting * settable acceleration, decleration, starting speed, and much more! 100% backwards-compatible with standard DC (non-digital) layouts.
• Equipped with a 28-speed step decoder.
• Main track programming.
• Also equipped with a state-of-the-art Digital Sound Decoder that's based on SoundTraxx Tsunami Digital Sound Technology.
• The decoder has been designed with a powerful Digital Signal Processor (DSP) and: * 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 The automatic dual mode decoder is set to operate immediately using either a 12 volt DC power pack or NMRA-compatible DCC command station.
• Many advanced throttle features including: * Programmable acceleration, deceleration and starting voltage for prototypical starting and stopping * Use of standard and alternate speed tables The 16-bit sound processor provides: * Adjustable volume control of each sound effect individually * 1-watt audio amplifier * Auto-Exhaust allows chuff to be synchronized to the locomotive speed without the complexity of a synchronizing cam All of the steam sound effects have been re-mastered and re-digitized for the best audio possible: - Steam Exhaust Chuff - Airpump - Bell - Dynamo - Whistle - Water Stop - Short Whistle - Brake Squeal - Brake Release - Snifter Valve - Side Rod Clank - Cylinder Cocks - Firebox Blower - Johnson Bar/Power Reverser - Coupler Clank - Cylinder Blowdown (Hiss) The Dynamic Digital Exhaust modifies exhaust volume, cutoff and timbre as locomotive load changes.
