According to the “conventional” section of my PS-3 Chicago Yellowbook set’s manual;
”To activate the TAS, press and hold the bell button for approximately 2 seconds. If you do not wish to stop at the station that is announced after activating TAS, press and hold the bell button again without throttling down the train.”
It also appears that besides transit announcements, firing the coupler, speed control, locking direction, learn mode, auto & manual mode are available to a conventional operator through different sequences of horn/whistle & bell button pushes.
Hope this helps

If its just the bell button to activate, couldnt a DCS explorer do that via the app?
My app with the dcs explorer has a bell button (albeit, it toggles on or off the bell, unsure if that makes a difference with the transit sequence)
