6CHANGING THE SOUNDS
On the supplied microSD are provided customized sound effects for a several number of trucks.
Note: To fully enjoy the sound quality it is recommended to use the original Tamiya
tm
speaker's or
a speaker of good quality available from your local dealer.
To select the set of sounds appropriate for the truck on which is installed the IBU2, do the
following:
1. With power OFF, press lightly on the microSD inserted under the IBU2 to release the microSD
memory card (NOTE: DO NOT PULL THE MICROSD TO UNLOCK !!!), pull it out and insert into a
memory card reader (not supplied) on your PC, MAC.
2. Access the media and browse its contents.
3. In the root of the media are the files used by the sound module of IBU2.
Each wave file is associated with a different sound effect according to the correspondence
set in the file "IBU2_TR.INI":
Varia le in the file IBU2_TR.ini Es. Audio file Corresponding effect
Engine Cold ON estartc.wav Starting a cold engine
Engine Warm ON estartw.wav Starting the engine hot
Engine Stop estop.wav Engine stop
Engine Idle eidle.wav Engine idling
Engine Step 1 es01.wav Motor Ramp 1
Engine Step 2 es02.wav Motor Ramp 2
...
Engine Step XX esXX.wav Motor Ramp XX
Revup revup.wav acceleration
Revdw revdw.wav deceleration
Air last1 air st1.wav 1 air vent
Air last2 air st2.wav Air vent 2
Air last3 air st3.wav Air vent 3
Air last4 air st4.wav Air vent 4
AlarmRev alarmrev.wav Reverse Alarm

Horn1 horn1.wav Clacson1
Horn2 horn2.wav Clacson2

Unlatch unlatch.wav release trailer
Shift1 horn1.wav Clacson1
Shift2 horn2.wav Clacson2
Turn1 turn1.wav indicator 1
Turn2 turn2.wav indicator 2
. To choose a different truck set for your truck simply enter into its subfolder (e.g. "Mack") and
copy all the files in the root of the microSD, overwriting the existing ones. Check the name
matching the audio samples with the associated tags in the file IBU2_TR.INI.
5. Remove the microSD from the PC/MAC adapter and put it back into the IBU2 socket until it
clicks, turn on your truck and try new sounds included.
6. New sound sets when produced will be available to download from http://www.ibu-
electronics.com/downloads_9.html
You can also create your own sounds by replacing the sounds provided by converting a sound
effect or music from any format (WAV, MP3) in WAV format, mono, 22050 Hz, 8 bits. Each sample
must not have a size greater than 1 Mb or its reproduction will be truncated.
The names of the * .wav files are not important, as long as the file is reported IBU2.ini proper
correspondence between each file and its sound effect, and provided they are not longer than 8
characters (plus the extension ".wav") and do not contain spaces or periods.
Example
"Abcd_defg.wav" Not good (9 characters);
"Abcdefghi.wav" Okay (8 characters);
"Ab cd.wav" Not good (5 characters, but there is a space);
"Ab.cd.wav" Not good (there is a point in the middle of the name).
Note: some audio editing software is not able to successfully convert the audio in this format, or
add data that can not be read by IBU2: if you have problems in the reproduction of its
samples, please contact the manufacturer.
Also avoid reformat the microSD provided ecause some operating systems do not
properly format the media.
