Getting Started with DecoderPro®

What hardware do I need?

You will need, at a minimum, a command station/booster for your DCC system, and a programming track set up according to the manufacturer's instructions. For some systems, you will also need an additional hardware interface to send the commands from your computer to the command station, and from there on to the decoder in the locomotive. For a Digitrax system, for example, you will need either the MS100 interface, PR3 programmer or a LocoBuffer. The PR1 device from Digitrax is a stand-alone programmer and is not usable with this software.

You will also need, of course, some locomotives with the decoders installed which you can program.
