When I hit the functions on my NCE controller I get no Horn or Bell.
Any ideas

Maybe you'd get better answers if you post this question under the DCS or DCC forum. There are guys there that could help. I'm not good with DCC but it sounds like there's some issue that is making the engine miss the command.
In DCC mode did you do a F3 "Basic Startup" or an F17 "Extended Startup"?
I've tried both modes. I don't have my program track set up yet and I programed the long address on the main which I think may have something to do with it.
You can do a reset on the Program track or on the Main. The big advantage on the main track is that you will immediately know if it takes. There's no sound or motion on the program track. On my NCE system that is.
The first level, simple things like short and long addresses can be done on the main. You only need the programming track for the more complex programming.
Try and F28 Feature Reset. (or whatever key is Feature Reset on your engine). Then start up the engine with the short address as Engine 03 using F3. You gotta hit F3 more than once sometimes. Do this a couple of times just to make sure it takes.
If this doesn't work go into the manual and follow the directions to do a Factory/Feature Reset. It's on p23 in my PS3 GP 35 manual.
Good Luck.
