Cab Addresses for NCE Throttles.

27Oct05

 

Those addresses are for the radio equipped cabs (2-17 ProCabs and 19-49 Cab 04's)

 

Regular Cab04 throttles have addresses from 0-63. But do not use address 2 on the Cab04s.  This is the factory setting for the ProCab address.  The non-radio ProCab addresses are 1-63.  So as long as you don't have any radio ProCabs, you can use your Cab04's in the same range as the ProCabs.

 

As I operate on a couple of other NCE layouts, we have gotten together and come up with our each individual numbering system for our layout cabs.  One is in the 30's one is in the 40's and I am in the 50's. I use 51 for the ProCab I have.  Every other non radio equipped Cab04 is numbered  52 and up.

 

My Radio equipped Cab04's are in the 23-33 range because of the mandatory addresses used by the radio cabs. I don't have a radio ProCab.  I won't need it either as I will do all my programming with the tethered ProCab. Consisting included.
