Model Railroading > Kato Unitrack n scale turnouts and NCE Power CabDate: 06/25/22 06:31 Kato Unitrack n scale turnouts and NCE Power Cab Author: jndepew I'm in the process of planning my 1st model railroad layout. Never done this before. I'm using Kato n scale Unitrack and NCE Power Cab Starter Set for DCC. I have the information on how to wire the Power Cab to the Switch-Kats to the Kato turnouts, but have not been able to find clear directions on how to program the Power Cab to control the turnouts. I understand (I think) that you program a cv on the Cab to do this, but how is that done? Any help will be appreciated (even better if it's illustrated).

Look at the turnouts, they have a blurb about a decoder just for the turnouts, everything you need to know regardless of which system you use. The decoder is Digitrax #DS51K1. Hope this helps!
