DCC for Beginners Wiring for DCC How to connect a new NCE Power Cab system?

Your DPDT SWITCH diagram makes no sense.
DPDT switch posts are like this:

Thanks for sharing this video and information. I haven’t used my NCE Throttle since I had 2 Strokes in 2020. This video is a great refresher tutorial !

Wanted to Thank you for the video. I don't fully understand yet because never had a train. I'm sure after me and wife find the right one I'll be watching ur video again!!!! GOD bless!!!!

Appreciated the simple explanation and graphics to show how to set the NCE up with programming track in-line so to speak. Just found your channel while searching for this, subbed.

Hi, I am new to DCC and have been watching your instructional video's. I just wanted to thank you as I have used your advice to help wire my layout to great effect. Although my layout is a little more complicated the basic principles are the same . Your guides have been very easy to follow.

Also, I was hoping you would make a video on reverse looping (if you haven't already done so). I purchased an AR1 that I am having lots of problems with wiring. As straight forward the system is I keep getting stalling loco's on the return switch. I use an NCE Power Cab. If I change the wiring to resolve the problem the power cab starts to malfunction.

Great video. Very thorough and easy to understand.

Great video. Thanks for the easy to understand explanation.

Спасибо за подробный обзор новой системы. С Новым годом!

excellent system. super easy. and well explained. ty

Im still confused. How do you program it on the actual NCE?

[chazco]

Interesting video. I am not sure which DCC system I'll be using.

[mikebeam]

did you mean to reverse the polarity of the programming track from the main?

hi I have a nce power cab but I want to run dc locos can it be done and how to do it thanks

[motokid]

Hey so I’m doing dcc on a n scale layout and plan to have 1 wire going to the track it’s 4 by 8 with 2 looping tracks is it fine or should I use more I plane to run only 1 at a time

Why mix in a programming track for a new DCC layout?

It appears that in your diagram that the black from the power supply goes to the double pole switch and connects to the green which currently feeds to the inside rail of the programming section yet when you flip the switch it feeds the black to the outside rail of the main line. 
Likewise the red from the power supply goes to the double pole switch and connects to the green which currently feeds to the outside rail of the programming section yet when you flip the switch it feeds the red to the inside rail of the main line. Maybe it makes no difference which way round you have it as long as the rest of the track is isolated? Can you have locos running on the main while you are programming others on an isolated track anyway?

Hi, easy, breezy! Great explanation. See ya.

Why not add a second set of "main" feeder wires to the prog track as well. That way you could drive your cab onto the insulated "prog" track under "main" power, and then swap the switch to the "prog" position to perform the programming without programming all other cabs on the mainline. Then, when the programming is completed, swap the switch back to "main" and then drive the cab back onto the mainline?

It seems to me that with how you have it wired in this video that once the cab crossed the insulation connectors, you would no longer be able to drive it onto the prog track, or am I missing something?

I prefer to use Bachmann E-Z Command. It's easier than other systems.

In a single loop track, with only one locomotive, why would you ever want a separate programming track?
Also, in a single loop track, why would you ever want more than one locomotive on the track? If two locomotives are on the same track, running at different speeds, then pretty soon one train will be trying to push the other train.
