So having decided on the NCE Power Cab as my controller, just how easy(or not)is it for a complete novice to DCC(like myself)to get it connected and setup to run a loco - can it be done in 10 minutes like they say? Well in this video I'll show you what I did and how long it took, before finishing with my first running of a couple of DCC fitted locos - with a little surprise too............

Thanks Mark. Hopefully will make a good bit of progress before the weather gets better and we get busy in the Spring.

Hi mate, looking good, you probably know this but you need to wire 2 separate bus on the nce system, 1 for the main and 1 for the programming track fed from a DPDT switch, HTH, Scott.

Hi Scott. Thank you very much. Yes, I've got bus wires underneath the layout ready to connect. I've ordered the DCC Concepts Aegis system which controls the separate mainline/programming track as part of it meaning you don't need a switch. At the moment all I have is a programming track, only just started my layout track.

Very different from when I last ran N Gauge Keith! Never too old to learn though, and that's just what I'm doing :-)

I've had one for quite a few years. My On30 is DCC. I like it's modular nature, I got a hand held controller with a knob and a 5A booster and it all just plugs together. It's quite capable and very reliable. There is also an interface which is quite cheap to connect it to free software to save and alter settings very easily. On30? The K28 is 18 inches long and weighs just over a kg all works fine on the NCE: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a-CKldN1z7rXg5c.htmlfeature=shared kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ldx8e8yerMjLmqs.htmlfeature=shared
