Using DCC To Operate RailKing RTR Train Sets

If you operate with Digital Command Control (DCC), you’ll find Proto-Sound 3.0 locomotives take full advantage of the capabilities of DCC and are completely compatible with all DCC motive power. In fact, Proto-Sound engines are already equipped to use DCC functions 0 through 28, to take full advantage of newer DCC controllers that use the full range of NMRA standard functions.
