Has anyone installed a Premacon Sound Module? What is involved?

Has anyone installed a Premacon Sound Module? What is involved? Looks like slot of wires? I want to install one on my komatsu PC700. Any details would be appreciated.
Thanks Shawn

RC4WD has one too. Think they are all about the same.

Says it's for semitruck on rc4wd where the others above say its for excavator.

I have the rc4wd/eagle machinery in my dozer. Not sure if it's the same that used to come with the armageddon or not but it's definitely not a truck engine sound.

Yea, the other modules seem to be made for excavators for the other function sounds. Make sure your radio is compatible with those sound units.

Thanks for the lead though. I'll shoot them an email and ask if they do make one for excavator.
Reason why I'm asking if it's meant for an excavator is if you hear the servonuaut SMB, you can hear the hydraulic fluid going back into the tank and also the engine noise when moving the arm etc. Check out the YouTube link below.

The rc4wd does not have that many sound files. its more basic, just engine, horn and reverse warning. All those sounds are cool, but I've never heard all that on the real deal while standing near one, just the engine rpms changing.

I bought one for the 960 I assembled for a friend
The premacon module is basically a Beier / USM-RC-2 (https://www.beier-electronic.de/modellbau/produkte/usm-rc-2/usm-rc-2.php) with a Premacon sticker on it and a specific program/sound list
If you are not too bad with electronics, you can program it yourself (even with your own sound !) and save $$

Thank you Papy. I will look into that as an option.

I bought the Servonaut SMB and everything down to the correct horn (hupe) sound for an excavator track sounds too! Now I just need to tackle the install Im not clear on channel mixing yet, but I figured out how to set up my radio and a 4 channel receiver with a PPM SBUS to get 16 channels and got everything on the switches where I wanted them so next is to tackle channel mixing after I figure what happened with my tracks and hydraulic leak �� so much for almost RTR... I just couldn't spend another $2000 or $3000 for a radio when I could get a brand new 16 channel for $300 (well add another $20 for the SBUS PPM board) I'm very happy with it. Here's a short video. https://youtu.be/g2MjRIVa-Uo
