The DN163K0b decoder for the Kato F3 A & B locomotives is set up with a fac-
tory-installed golden-white LED for forward lighting. Since there is no rear light,
the headlight will be on in the forward direction and off in reverse. The LEDs
and other lights you add can easily be set up using the decoder’s CVs to create
many different Digitrax FX

prototypical lighting effects.

repair or replacement at Digitrax’s sole discretion. Except as expressly stated in
the full warranty statement, there are no warranties, express or implied, includ-
ing but not limited to any warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particu-

Digitrax, Inc. is not responsible for unintentional
errors or omissions in this document.
Caution: To prevent damage to your decoder and locomotive, track voltage used during
operation must not exceed the operating parameters of the locomotive and its lighting sys-
tem in which the decoder is installed (typically this is 12V DC). For most N scale layouts,
Digitrax recommends using 14 volts DCC or less for operation to avoid damage to the
locomotive shell, lamps and decoder.
