DCC Sound Question - Loco #1 (08 Shunter)

[Art Dent]

Hello,

 

This is the first of three queries about DCC Sound-equipped locos (all with Zimo chips)

 

I have mislaid all the info on these locos and what sounds are allocated to which FN.

 

First off - a Dapol 08 Shunter

 

Fitted with a Zimo MX645R and stay-alive.

 

Purchased from Digitrains, Lincoln and fitted by them with a Paul Chetter sound project.

 

I think it was one of Paul's early 'Active Drive' versions (dating from March 2017 or 2018?)

 

Can anyone please help with a list of FN keys?

 

Everything is currently boxed up whilst a major house refurbishment is taking place, so don't have access to a programming/test track.

 

Thanks in advance,

This is a function list from the Protodrive 08 I would imagine the functions are the same?

Thanks Nick.

 

It is a sheet like that that I have mislaid.

 

Currently unable to pop the loco on a test track to try out the function buttons due to house rennovation and evrything being packed away.

 

At least the locos were i a readily-accessible box!

 

All the best for Christmas.

I 'think' the functions are the same, I can pop a sheet in the post after christmas if you need one having 8 class 08's sound fitted I have plenty spare!

Hi Nick, that's very kind of you.

 

No need to send me one however, I'll use the picture you kindly posted.

 

I'll also have a furtle about in the storage boxes to see if I can find the command station & programming track in the meantime!

 

Update:  (several hours later - success - I found the command station & programming track.  Just need the time to check things out now)

If you look on the Digitrains website and click on the sound project you bought , it should show all the relevant functions for that project.

Thanks Albie, I'll check that out.
