Couplers
Your MTH PS3.0-equipped engine comes with remotely controlled Proto-
Couplers. They can be fired using your DCC handheld.
F7 – Front Coupler (Not Included)
Pressing F7 twice (toggling on then off) will fire your Front Coupler
F8 – Rear Coupler
Pressing F8 twice (toggling on then off) will fire your Rear Coupler
Forward/Reverse Signal
Just like a real engine, you can announce the direction of intended movement
using your DCC handheld and F9 and F10.
F9 – Forward Signal
Pressing F9 twice (toggling on then off) will sound the Forward Signal. This is
two whistle/horn blasts
F10 – Reverse Signal
Pressing F10 twice (toggling on then off) will sound the Reverse Signal. This is
three whistle/horn blasts
Grade Crossing Signal
Again, just like a real engine, you can trigger the Grade Crossing Signal on your
engine. This is two long, one short, one long whistle/horn blast.
F11 – Grade Crossing Signal
Pressing F11 twice (toggling on then off) will sound your Crossing Signal.
Smoke (if Equipped)
F12 – Smoke On/Off
Enabling F12 will turn the smoke unit on. Disabling F12 will turn your smoke unit off.
F13 – Smoke Volume
There are three smoke volume levels in your MTH PS3.0-equipped engine
–Low/Med/High. The default for this is set to High. You can adjust the smoke
output (amount of smoke the generator puts out) by pressing the F13 button
twice. This sets the level to the next step. For example, if you are currently at the
High smoke output level, pressing F13 twice (toggling it on then off) will set the
smoke volume to Low. Pressing F13 twice again will set it to Medium and so on.
