COMING LATE SEPTEMBER 2023 Blunami will change the way you enjoy the model railroading hobby! The BLU-PNP8 is a universal factory board replacement sound decoder suitable for use in many manufacturer’s diesel models such as those made by Atlas, Athearn, and InterMountain Models. It is suitable for a wide variety of models from HO to S scale. It can be operated in three different ways: DC, DCC, and Wireless mode. Using the Blunami App, you can operate your locomotive incredibly easily. Need Help Choosing a Sound Profile? We have tons of sounds to match a wide range of locomotives. So many, in fact, we cannot fit them all on one decoder. Therefore, they are broken up into sound profiles of like sounds (EMD, GE, ALCO, etc.). If you don't know which sound profile you need, the best place to start is the Sound Selection References. These will list all the prime movers or exhaust chuffs available on each sound profile. If you need further assistance explore these links:

• Decoder Selector: Tells you which board format and part number you need for specific models.
• Sound Samples: Hear our sounds in action!
• Choosing the Right Sound System: If you are new to SoundTraxx, model railroading, or are unfamiliar with our products.
• Sound Selection References: There are several for each decoder and they can be found below or in the Manuals section of our website.

DYNAMIC DIGITAL EXHAUST  For added realism, you’ll love our reactive Dynamic Digital Exhaust (DDE) feature that automatically notches your model's engine up or down depending on the load on the motor. With the Blunami App, DDE calibration has never been easier. When your locomotive is traveling across flat terrain and simply maintaining speed, you will hear your locomotive chugging along. But, when the locomotive encounters a grade and the engineer applies more throttle to get the train up the hill, the engine sounds will automatically react and reflect the increase of power needed to crest the hill. DDE accomplishes this by calculating the changes in strain or load on the motor and adjusting the exhaust to appropriately simulate the work the engineer would be doing to the throttle of the engine. This gives Blunami the ability to create the most realistic experience possible. HIGH-QUALITY SOUND LIBRARY Our large selection of sound effects includes:

• Up to 12 Prime Movers in each sound profile
• Up to 12 Bells
• 40+ Airhorns
• Additional couplers, cab chatter, and more!

ADDED REALISM Additional realism can be simulated by adding functioning locomotive and train brakes, injectors, and more. EASY INSTALLATION This decoder includes a connector to easily add a CurrentKeeper (P.N. 810140 or 810160) to maintain performance over dirty track and switches. This 2-amp, universal-style format includes a connector to easily add a CurrentKeeper (P.N. 810140 or 810160) to maintain performance over dirty track and switches.

Max. Motor Stall Current:	2A
Max. Function Current:	100mA (each output)
Function Outputs:	8

TCS Keep-Alive® (KA) devices are used to supply power to decoders during times of power interruption due to dirty track or problematic track work.   Newly-redesigned and coming in at half the size of a KA3, the KA1 will power HO or N scale locomotives with approximately one-third of the capacitance of KA3/KA4 devices (depending on the locomotive and motor).   This Keep-Alive® includes a 2-Pin Quick Connector Harness for plugging into decoders with a compatible socket. SKU:  2002

TCS Keep-Alive® (KA) devices are used to supply power to decoders during times of power interruption due to dirty track or problematic track work. The KA-N1 can power an N-scale locomotive for 1-2 seconds over dirty track and power interruptions (depending on the number of lights and efficiency of the motor).   This Keep Alive® has been specifically designed to be as physically small as possible. This product uses a slightly lower voltage and has a lower capacity compared to our larger Keep Alive products such as the KA1, KA4, etc., and is intended to be used with N-scale decoders, such as the K7D4 and more! SKU:  2010
