Ergonomics & Functionality Combined
When you hold your CabControl Throttle in your hands for the first time you will immediately notice its excellent ergonomics. All Parts of the screen can easily be reached with one hand, and unlike a cell phone throttle, the most important functions can even be reached "without looking" giving you the ability to watch your trains and not needing to watch your throttle. This is due to the central, motorized throttle knob with end stop. With this knob you can delicately control the speed of your trains and change direction.For activating functions simply touch the icons on the display. The display also serves for changing functions - exactly the same way as you know it from your mobile phone. Finally, two buttons each on either side serve for changing direction or triggering the most important functions. These side buttons are user editable giving you the choice of what you want to control with them. Colorized Function Icons are displayed showing what function does what. Gone are the days of having to memorize what function button control what decoder feature. Running Locomotives
