Hello everyone,

Im trying to figure out how to get my Athearn SD70ACe's equipped with factory Tsunami sound decoders to "play" the engine shut down sequence. Ive scoured the internet with no luck and have looked at numberous Tsunami / Athearn manuels online on how to go about getting them to run the sequence.

Is there some CV's that need adjusting to get them to do this? I am using the Digitrax Zephyr Xtra (DSC51) to run and program the decoders. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance,

-Chris
 
Do you have a throttle? Hitting emergency stop on a Digitrax throttle (and presumably on any other throttle with such a button) will trigger the shutdown sequence.

The only other way is to enable manual notching and notch down while in idle.

Guess im gonna have to mess with manual notching as the Digitrax Zephyr Xtra does not have an emergency stop switch.
