<p>[quote user="selector"] </p><p>>>> snip <<<<</p><p>Soundtraxx, on the other hand, do the opposite, much to my annoyance. You can mute them, but they'll resume making sound if you have to correct a power interruping short, or when you next power up the layout.</p><p>>>>> snip <<<<</p><p>[/quote]</p><p>All of my SoundTraxx decoders (an old DSD150, some DSX, some LCs, and several Tsunamis) have a "quiet bit" to prevent that. If it is set, when the layout is powered-up the sound does not come on automatically. It comes on when the decoder receives a speed or function command. </p><p>It's CV 113 in Tsunami and LC series, CV 53 in DSD-150 and DSX decoders. In both cases, any non-zero value works; in Tsunami, the size of the value controls when the sound is turned off when the decoder is idle (no movement, no lights on). </p><p> </p>
