First, let me once again thank everyone in the group who has been helping me out. Because of your assistance, I am having more success with setting up my layout and trains than I believed was possible. I have 5 locomotives up and running and am now fine tuning everything prior to starting with the layout scenery, buildings, etc.
There is one thing bugging me though...
I have gotten help finding out that F8 on my Power Cab will turn the sound on and off on my locos. That is helpful. I also know that the emergency stop button will shut down at least some of my locos. It doesn't seem to work on others.
My Athearn loco has a Tsunami sound equipped decoder in it. There are two things I want to do with it. I have read the manual and am still dizzy after that. One thing I want to do is to have the Tsunami sound not come on when I first boot up the layout. I would rather it stay silent until I access the decoder for that loco and do something with it. The manual tells me I need to reset CV 113 to a value higher than 0 and that sounds easy enough. The second thing I want to do, should be even easier, but I can't find anything in the manual that tells me how to do it.
I want to turn the overall sound volume down for that loco.
So, is there a Tsunami and Power Cab pro out there who can walk me through the process for changing CV113 and for changing whatever I need to to lower the overall volume?
A caution here...if you jump in to help me out, there is a follow-up question coming about how to turn the volume UP on my Rapido loco (which has a sound decoder, but I don't know what kind).
Whew...
