on the southern engine you just need to turn up the volume in conventional there is a volume control under Neath the engine just turn up the volume where you want it to stay at the level you set for conventional. under dcs the remote runs the volume that's why your level is low in conventional you must have set it lower! you probably need a little Phillip's screwdriver to turn your volume. on your Daylight 20-3060 are u using the same tiu or is it a separate track and tiu? also if your using a different track and tiu you might have the dcs turned on if is turned on it will not run on conventional with dcs on as it is seeing the watch dog signal which make the engine stay dark and silent! get your remote and find system/dcs and turn your dcs off and I think your find your engine runs in conventional ok good luck!
please let us know how you made out!
