Kato USA is thrilled to announce a brand new way to operate your UNITRACK layout – your phone or tablet! Using the Kato Smart Controller, take control of your trains with hands-free throttle operation using your smart device’s Bluetooth connection.

Better yet – when paired with the Kato Sound Box, the Smart Controller gives you control over all of the Sound Box’s functions – from the sound controls themselves down to the sync and volume adjustments. Everything the sound box can do – you can too, from the palm of your hand!

The Kato Smart Controller can pair with any* Android or Apple Device using a free App that can be downloaded from the Google Play or Apple Store!

Also coming will be brand new separately sold A/C adapters that can be used with the Smart Controller or with the new Kato Power Pack SX, for those customers looking for more power for their layout!

 Includes:

► Bluetooth operated Smart Controller

► Communication cable for use with the 22-101-1 Sound Box
