HO / Re: Bachmann PCC trolley with sparking trolley pole

After much trial and error, here are the settings:

CV112 = 1:  Activates the air compressor as background noise

F4:  toggles between spark and no spark on the pantograph

I continue to have issues with CV 52.  What is value for CV 52 that enables sound sychronized with the sparking?

Many thanks.  What value should I enter for CV 52?

Also, thanks for the clarification on the traction motors.  The marketing materials for the trolley do mention traction motor sounds.

Maybe I can shed more clarity:

-The function buttons come pre-configured per the PDF.
-I had to configure the PCC to activate the "background noise" air compressor (this was done via trial and error).
-I can't find the CV and CV value for "traction motor" and "sparking trolley pole".

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the quick response.  Yes, I have the PDF document, but it does not list the CV mappings (i.e., CV 198:  Value one is for bell, Value 2 is bell + whistle, etc.

Thanks,

HO / Bachmann PCC trolley with sparking trolley pole

Hello - I recently purchased a PCC Trolley from Bachmann.  The factory DCC card was not enabled for compressor or traction motor.  After programing the DCC, I was able to turn "on" the compressor, but not the traction motor.  I also seem to have disabled the sparking pole.

Can anyone shed some light on how the CVs should be configured?

Many thanks,
Dan
