Apparently it did miss the watchdog! A PS2 engine should stay dark and silent when it sees the watchdog signal and lights up with sound on STARTUP from the remote.
The NKP Berk was on-track with power off. I powered up the Z4000, raising it to 17-18V, the loco clicked, the lights came on, but did not make any sounds. On one occasion when I lifted the unit and broke contact with the third rail, it performed a conventional start-up. I didn't attempt to run it that way since I had already run it on it's former owner's layout and so assumed that mode was A-OK.
At all times during this session, I had power off when placing any unit on the rails.
