PRODUCT INFO:

The TTS Sound Decoder – Merchant Navy (Rebuilt) supports both long and short decoder addresses and features adjustable acceleration and deceleration options as well as 2 sound channels for allowing the play of full locomotive sounds such as bells, wagon couplings and brakes.

When operated via F0 on the controller, this decoder has the ability to support directional rear and front lighting – dependent on if the locomotive has lighting features.

Motor current: maximum continuous- 500mA; Motor current: peak- 1.amp (no function load); Function output current maximum- 100mA (unprocessed).

IMPORTANT - The decoder does not support sound under DC (analogue) operation. Sounds can only be played under DCC (digital) operation. This applies to all sounds, both running and spot sounds. The locomotive's motor may be controlled under DC operation.
