There are additional user options which may be configured via CV 176 - Sound Options #2

Feature	Description	Default	Value
Dual Prime Movers	Enable this setting to have two prime mover sound files play simultaneously. This feature may be used for locomotives such as E8's with two prime movers.	OFF	1
Dynamic Braking Notch Up	If this setting is enabled, the prime mover will notch up multiple times with subsequent presses of the dynamic brake button (F5 by default); If disabled the prime mover will go to the set Dynamic Brake Notch and stay there when the dynamic brakes are applied.	ON	2
Reverse Directional Horns	If this setting is enabled, the Automatic Directional Horns (if enabled) will reverse so that the forward horn will play when going reverse (and so on). This feature is sometimes useful when a decoder installation has the motor wired in the reverse polarity. Instead of re-wiring the locomotive, this feature allows for a software fix. Often used in conjunction with CV 29.	OFF	4
Automatic Notching Mechanism Selection	If enabled, user option bit 4 decides if the prime mover notches will stair step or jump directly between notches. If disabled, the decoder will automatically decide when to use stair stepping or jump notching. The decoder will base this decision on the active Momentum Mode.	OFF	8
Notching Mechanism Selection	This setting controls whether the Notching Mechanism is set to jump-notching or stair-step notching. Automatic Notching Mechanism Selection must be enabled in order to use this setting. If this setting is enabled, the prime mover will stair-step through each notch; If this setting is disabled, the prime mover will jump-notch.	ON	16
