TCS 1902 WOW Kit WSK-BAC-3 with WOW121-Steam DCC Sound Decoder for Bachmann Models

Note: Function 5 and 6 are not programmable, and will only output constant bright lights. Take this into account when wiring multiple lighting functions.

For a complete list of available sounds, check out the "Sounds List" under the "Documents" tab.

• CD-Quality Sound: TCS' world-renowned CD-quality sound. 16 Bits of resolution at 44.1kHz sample rate.
• Back EMF Load Compensation: Provides superior slow speed control and high performance under load.
• Quiet Drive: Super-quiet motor control for "buzz" free motor performance.
• DC Mode: Decoder will automatically detect DC power. You can also configure how your lighting effects function on DC.
• Variable Momentum: Allows you to make custom acceleration and deceleration curves.
• Incandescent Bulb Support: This decoder can be used with 12 Volt bulbs.
• Function Remapping: Buttons 0 through 12 may be used to control the lighting functions of this decoder.
• Programmable Lighting Effects: Choose from 20 separate user-programmable lighting effects!
• Dimmable Brightness: Configure multiple different brightness levels for your LED's or incandescent bulbs.
• Decoder Lock: Feature which prevents accidental/unwanted programming while activated.
• Airwire™ Compatible: Fully compatible with Airwire™ operation.
• CAM: Use a positive voltage trigger to synchronize your chuff rate to your drivers' rotation.
• Audio Assist®: TCS exclusive auditory feedback programming system. Program your decoder without the need to memorize CV's!
• User-Loadable Speed Tables: Configure custom speed curves and set speed limits.
• Throttle Modes: Choose from multiple throttle modes to meet your operating needs.
• True Scale Sound: A unique WOWSound feature which uses TCS’ exclusive auto-adjusting BEMF technology to automatically change the intensity of the chuff. Prototype Mode also offers dynamic sound volumes which accurately model the real-life equivalent. Also includes pre-programmed acceleration and deceleration values.
• Rotate Horn/Whistle/Bell Use a single button to rotate through all of the available Horns, Bells, and Whistles on the decoder and select your favorites!
• Chuffinity By combining a massive library of chuff sounds with a state of the art algorithm, Chuffinity produces a beautiful chorus of chuff sounds without ever producing a looping or predictable pattern. Beautiful, clear, and complex chuffs that never repeat will take you trackside to the days of steam glory!

Speaker Selection

• This decoder is optimized for 8 Ω speakers (not included).
• This decoder uses and audio amplifier capable of supplying up to 2 Watts of power to an 8 Ohm load at maximum volume. An 8 Ohm speaker with a 1 Watt minimum power rating is recommended for use with this decoder as it comes out of the package. If you are using an 8 Ohm speaker with a power rating of 2 Watts or less, you must reduce your master volume to prevent speaker failure or amplifier stress.
• The amplifier(s) on a WOWSound product can support speakers with impedance ratings as low as 4 Ohms. A reduction in impedance will require a higher power dissipation rating (more Watts) on said speaker. The minimum power requirement for a 4 Ohm speaker is 4 Watts. If you are using a 4 Ohm speaker with a power rating of 4 Watts or less, you must reduce your master volume to prevent speaker failure or amplifier stress.
• Speaker enclosures greatly increase speaker performance in most cases - improving the apparent volume by more efficiently directing the flow of air and reducing or eliminating destructive interference.
