3 VISION Stock Car basics

Note! Power your VISION Stock Car with an alternating-current (AC) transformer only. Powering your stock car car with a direct-current (DC) transformer, or in excess of 19 volts AC, may result in damage to sensitive electronic components.

VISION Stock car switch locations he sound equipped VISION Stock Car contains RailSounds programming switches. Refer to TFigure 1. The instructions below are specific to this particular stock car; note that available features (and switches) may differ from other stock cars and rolling stock.

Program / Run Switch Your stock car is automatically assigned an ID#1 when you first receive it. Assign it a new ID different from the locomotive pulling it. To assign a new ID # to the stock car car in LEGACY and Command operation follow these steps: 1. Slide the Program/Run switch to the “PROG” position. 2. Place the stock car on the track. 3. Connect the Command Base and plug it in. 4. Power up the track to 18 Volts AC (50 or 60 Hz). 5. Press ENG on your CAB controller. 6. Enter an unique ID#. Choose any number from 1 to 98 that has not been assigned to another engine or freight car. 7. Press the SET button on your CAB controller. 8. Slide the Program/Run switch back to the RUN position.

The stock car’s ID# has been set. Be sure to record the new ID# for your reference.

Min/Max Switch Used to make the sound, simulating standard FreightSounds, less or more active. When the switch is in the MIN position, the dialog and some background motion sounds will turn off. This allows you to put more than one sound-equipped car on the same ID. To do this, set one car to MAX and then trigger loading/unloading. Sound effects will come from all cars; however dialog will only come from one.

Volume Pot To adjust the overall volume of sounds, turn over the car and insert a small Flathead screwdriver into the Volume Pot adjustment post and turn. To increase the volume, turn the post clockwise. To decrease the volume, turn the post counter-clockwise. Your CAB-remote can also adjust volume; the setting of this physical control will limit the maximum volume your car can produce.

5 LEGACY and Command Control Remote Operations LEGACY Control operations our VISION Stock Car is designed for operation with the Lionel LEGACY system. It will also Yoperate on the original Lionel Trainmaster System (TMCC1) with limited features and also on the LEGACY Cab-1L / Base-1L operating system (again with reduced features.) Using a Lionel LEGACY set (6-14295) will allow you to access ALL the features this stock car has to offer. Your commands are sent by the Remote Controller to the Command Base, which broadcasts a radio frequency that is distributed through the outside rails of the track to your sound equipped stock car. Moving your train after you power up your track will turn the sounds on. 1. Turn off track power, and then plug in the LEGACY Base and connect it to the track. 2. Place your stock car on the track. 3. Increase track power (no more than 18 volts AC). If a circuit breaker trips when you turn on the Lionel power supply, check the wheels of your stock car to make sure they are all securely on the track. Check to make sure the track is free of all metals that may cause a short circuit. 4. Moving your Vision stock car after powering up the track automatically turns on the sound.

Choosing an ID for your VISION Stock Car he VISION Stock Car must be given a unique Engine ID. Use the Program / Run switch and Tfollow the instructions on Page 4. Setting it to the same LEGACY or TMCC ID as the locomotive pulling it will result in undesired operation. Once a unique ID is set, the VISION Stock Car should be assigned to a train along with your locomotive. If you have more than one VISION Stock Car, for best results set them all to unique ID’s. You may also choose to set them all to the same ID. In this case, set one stock car’s min/max switch to the MAX position (see page 5) and all others to MIN.

6 LEGACY and Command Control Remote Operations Setting up your VISION Stock Car in your CAB-2 remote or best operation, your VISION Stock car should be set to TYPE FRT (Freight Sounds). This will Fdisplay a special set of touch screen icons specifically designed for use with this type of car. 1. Press ENG and the 1 or 2 digit TMCC ID you assigned to your stock car following the instructions on page 4. 2. Press INFO (see page 11 for button location). 3. Press SCROLL button until you see the TYPE Tab (DSL STM DSW SSW) 4. Press the small black down-facing triangle to the right of SSW. This will scroll down through several pages of engine types. 5. The third page includes Accessory, Passenger, BreakDown B Unit and Freight (ACC PAS BDU FRT) 6. Choose FRT. Your screen should look like this:

7. Press INFO to complete the operation.

7 LEGACY and Command Control Remote Operations Setting up your VISION Stock Car in your CAB-2 remote continued Adding Your Stock car to a Train For best operation, your VISION Stock car should be assigned to a Train. Be sure it has a different engine ID from any active locomotives on your layout.

To add a Stock car to a train: 1. Press the TR button and enter a 1 or 2 digit number for your new train. (2, in this example) 2. Press the INFO button. Your screen will look like this:

3. Press BUILD. 4. Enter the TMCC ID of the locomotive that will head up this train. (20 in this example)

8 LEGACY and Command Control Remote Operations Setting up your VISION Stock Car in your CAB-2 remote continued Adding Your Stock car to a Train 5. Press ADD to add a second member to the Train

6. Enter the TMCC ID of the freight car. 7. Press SET and wait for the Ready To Run message.

To move your locomotive, select the Train by its ID number and use the throttle, boost, and brake to run it. Apply your CAB2 Train brake and hear the brakes operating on your VISION Stock car. For more prototypical action, stopping with the train brake applied (in any amount) will keep your freight consist stretched-out and prevents stress on the coupler when starting. Your train simulates this effect. If you stop without using Train Brake, you’ll hear the impact of your freight car hitting the coupler in front of it. And when you move the next time, you’ll hear another impact sound as the coupler slack is taken up. 9 LEGACY and Command Control Remote Operations Setting up your VISION Stock Car in your CAB-2 remote continued Using Train Link To send a command specifically to your VISION Stock car, such as a coupler command or to trigger loading/unloading, press the Train Link button (see page 11 for button location).

STOCK CAR COMMANDS

Select one or more commands then press the Train Link button to continue controlling your train.

Note! In order to send commands directly to your stock car, you must press Train Link. The remote will show the screen above. In this mode, the train itself (ie. the engine) will not respond because you are sending commands directly to the stock car.

15 LEGACY and Command Control Remote Operations Adjusting the volume from your LEGACY remote n addition to the physical volume control on the bottom side of your VISION Stock car (see page I5), your remote can be used to adjust the overall volume, or just the volume of the background sounds (which include bump, grind, and rail clatter). Pressing the volume up or down buttons (see pages 11 or 15) adjusts the overall volume of your VISION Stock car. A single bell ring will be heard each time the volume is raised or lowered, except that no ring will be heard once the volume reaches the minimum or maximum levels.

To adjust only the levels of the background sounds in LEGACY mode, such as rail clatter, bump and grind sounds: 1. If assigned to a Train, press Train Link, or address your Stock Car directly by pressing ENG and its ID. 2. Press AUX1 first, then press the volume up or down keys on your remote. 3. Press the Train Link button to continue controlling your train.

In this case, a metallic clank sound will confirm the background or “blend” sound volume is being adjusted. Again, this confirming sound will not be heard when the background/blend sound volume reaches its minimum or maximum level. Note! To adjust the overall volume of the stock car, follow the instructions above except do not press AUX1. Only press the volume up or down buttons.

Note! Be aware that if your Min/Max switch is in the Min position, adjusting the master volume or blend volume from your remote will have essentially the same result.

16 LEGACY and Command Control Remote Operations Adjusting the volume from your CAB-1L, or CAB-1 remote To adjust only the levels of the background sounds in CAB-1 or CAB-1L mode, such as rail clatter, bump and grind sounds: 1. Press ENG and enter the stock car ID. 2. Press AUX1 first, then press the volume up or down keys on your remote.

Note! To adjust the overall volume of the stock car, follow the instructions above except do not press AUX1. Only press the volume up or down buttons.

17 LEGACY and Command Control Remote Operations Loading scenarios 1, 2, and 3 our Vision Stock Car is set up to go through 3 different loading operations throughout the course Yof its delivery service. The empty stock car was initially loaded with cattle (simulated by loading scenario 1). The train of stock cars was then moved from the stockyard to the next stockyard where the cattle were given water, per regulations, as well as potentially adding more cattle into the car (loading scenario 2). As the train continued on its journey, it could potentially make additional stops to feed and water the cattle, and possibly add more cattle into additional cars (loading scenario 3). Then, once the car arrived at its destination, the cattle was unloaded (unloading scenario). To authentically replicate this operation, the VISION Stock Car cycles through 3 different loading scenarios. Once the unloading scenario is activated, the loading scenario reverts back to scenario 1 to start the process again. Each of the three loading steps must be played in sequence. You can play any loading sequence one or more times. To advance from one step to the next, play a loading scene and then move your stock car to the next location (any distance). This motion will advance to the next loading scene.

Load Step 1:

With your VISION Stock Car powered up and making sound (see page 6) move your train to the desired location on your layout for cattle loading. CAB-2 users should use Train Link (page 10), CAB-1L operators will need to enter the engine ID assigned your stock car.

Press the Train Link button, then tap and release the load button on your LEGACY remote. Press the Train Link button again to continue controlling your train. On your CAB-1 or CAB-1L remote, press TR, ENG, and the stock car ID. Then push the 3 key. Press TR to return to controlling your train. Listen as the foreman directs the crew to begin loading cattle. Listen for the background sounds of men herding cattle and the cattle moving into the car. The loading sequence will run about 6 seconds and include 2-3 lines of dialog from the foreman, concluding with an order to close up and head to the next stop.

By pressing and holding the Load button on your Legacy remote or 3 on your CAB-1 or CAB-1L remote, you can extend the loading sequence indefinitely. As the longer sequence plays, listen for a variety of orders from the foreman. If he thinks the loading is taking too long, you’ll hear him ordering his crew to work faster.

18 LEGACY and Command Control Remote Operations Loading scenarios 1, 2, and 3 continued Load Step 2:

You must go through the first loading scene before you get to the next loading point. Once the cattle are loaded, move the VISION Stock Car to the next desired location on your layout. It’s OK to stop and start more than once on the way to each stop.

Follow the instructions for Load Step 1, but this time the dialog will include orders to load additional cattle and give the cattle water. Again, a tap of the load button plays a short scene, pressing and holding extended the loading sequence as long as you like. But the foreman will complain if it takes too long! Repeat the cattle loading scene if you like, or move the train towards your final destination.

Load Step 3:

En-route to your destination you may want to add additional cattle. The next loading scene is triggered in the same way as the previous two scenes. Load Step 3 is the final loading sequence and will repeat each time you trigger it, even if you move your VISION Stock Car between triggers. In order to reset the loading sequence back to Load Step 1, the car must be unloaded (see next section). A reset command or removing track power will also reset the load sequence to the first step.

19 LEGACY and Command Control Remote Operations

Unloading he unloading scene can be triggered at any time. It’s not necessary to load the car prior to Tunloading, although it would be more prototypical (and fun!) to load first. With your VISION Stock Car powered up and making sound (see page 6) move your train to the desired location on your layout for unloading cattle. CAB-2 users should use Train Link (page 12), CAB-1L operators will need to enter the engine ID assigned your stock car.

On your Legacy remote, press the Train Link button. Tap and release the Unload button. Press the Train Link button again to continue controlling your train.

On your CAB-1 or CAB-1L remote, press TR, ENG, and the stock car ID. Press the 6 key. Press TR to continue controlling your train.

Listen as the foreman directs the crew to unload the cattle. Listen for the background sounds of men working. The loading sequence will run about 6 seconds and include 2-3 lines of dialog from the foreman.

By pressing and holding and hold the Unload button or the 6 key, you can extend the unloading sequence indefinitely. As the longer sequence plays, listen for a variety of orders from the foreman. If he thinks the unloading is taking too long, you’ll hear him ordering his crew to work faster.

Loading and Unloading in Conventional Operation Only n conventional (transformer-controlled) operation, the short horn or short whistle command Iwill trigger loading and unloading. Note that locomotive dialog is also triggered by a short horn. Within the first 15 seconds of stopping, a short horn will play a cattle unloading scene. When stopped for more than 15 seconds, a short horn will trigger a cattle loading scene. Load Step 2 and Load Step 3 scenes are not available in conventional operation.

20 Sound System Operations

Freight Sounds hen your stock car is running on the track, you will hear a variety of realistic freight car Wsounds in the background. Listen for an occasional “knock” of the wheels as they clatter over crossing rail junctions, wheel-flange grinding and assorted bumping, groaning, and scraping sounds along the route.

Rail Clatter ail clatter is the simulated sound of each axel passing over a rail joint. This sound can be turned Ron and off using the Option A On/Off commands (CAB-2 only). Pressing an Option A button also plays a special “tripple clatter” sound to indicate this effect has been turned on or off. Setting the Min/Max switch to Min also mutes rail clatter.

Grind rind is the high-pitched metallic sound of wheel flange scraping the inside of the rails. This Gsound can be turned off using the Option B On/Off commands (CAB-2 only). Pressing an option B button also plays a special “tripple grind” sound to indicate this effect has been turned on or off. Press the Train Link button to access this feature. Note, the Min/Max switch setting has no effect on Grind sounds.

Bump ump sounds happen most often when the speed of your VISIONLINE Stock car changes. Motion Bstart and motion stop or adjustments to your throttle all trigger bump sounds, which are heavy metallic groans, deeper scraping and banging sounds. The Min/Max switch setting has no effect on Bump sounds.

Flat Wheel n addition to Freight Sounds, your car also has Flat Wheel sound effects that activate when the Istock car is moving. Select button “Controller” (2-key on CAB-1L) while the car is moving to get a simulated “flat spot” sound, just like on the real railroads. The flat wheel sound will increase in volume as the car runs. About 5-7 seconds after the car has stopped, you will hear a workman announce that the wheel is fixed and that you are “good to go!”. Setting the Min/Max switch to Min disables the flat wheel effect.

Note! The flat wheel effect is not available in conventional mode operation.

21 LEGACY Sound System Operations

Train Brake he Train Brake sound effects are only accessible through your LEGACY CAB-2 Remote Controller. TFor full effect, you must add your stock car to a “lash up” that includes at least one powered locomotive (see the Assignment to Train section on the bottom on page 8 for more information). While moving at high or medium speeds, pull back on the Train Brake slider (See page 11). When the slider is engaged, an intermittent scraping sound will begin. This sound simulates air brakes on the freight car engaging. Pull back further and the brake sounds get louder and louder. Sliding the Train Brake back up will generate various air “let-off” sounds and the authentic sound of brake shoes lifting off of the wheel. Experiment with the Train Brake Slider to get a variety of realistic air brake sounds.

Note! Adjusting the train brake slider while addressing your stock car as an engine (ENG) leads to unpredictable results.
