Need help using the NCE Power Cab
Posted by mrazz on Wednesday, June 20, 2012 6:07 PM

Hi,

Can anyone tell me how to use the double digit functions on the number keypad for the NCE Power Cab? My son and I can’t figure out how to enter the function numbers from # 10 on in order to utilize some of the other decoder sounds.

Any information will be helpful.

Thanks, Mark

Only functions F10, 11, and 12 are programmed into the Power Cab.  Holding down the SHIFT key while pressing the PROG/ESC key is F10, EXPN is F11, and 28/128 becomes F12.

Any functions higher than F12 require programming of the cab itself using the chart in the operator's manual.

Apparently you have not read the manual. Go to page 19 and start reading. I just looked at it. Following instructions has always worked for me.
