Description
The NCE 5240040 Cab06r Wireless Handheld DCC Throttle is the Cab06r — a more compact wireless throttle with a conventional knob for speed control instead of the Pro Cab's keypad.
What it does: Built around a digital encoder for smooth analogue-feel speed control. Switchable into Yard mode: in Yard mode the knob behaves as 'centre-off' — turn right to accelerate forward, return to centre to stop, continue past centre to the left to go in reverse. Great for switching crews. Requires the NCE Radio Base Station.
- Type: Compact throttle / cab (wireless radio)
- Speed control: Digital encoder knob
- Yard mode: Centre-off bi-directional knob
- Requires: NCE Radio Base Station (RB02)
- NCE part: 5240040 (Walthers 524-40)
Tip: Knob-throttle people love the Cab06; keypad people prefer the Pro Cab. Many layouts stock both so operators can pick their preference.
