What is the digatrax decoder number for the kato F3 A and B unit? Is it the same as the F7?

HO or N scale?

If it is the newer F3 (the model available now), it is the DN163K0B. I have not seen the insides of the newer F7s to know whether or not they are the same, but I suspect they are. The B unit uses the same decoder model, just lop off the headlight LED.

The n scale F7 and F3 from Kato both use the DN163K0B decoder from Digitrax. I have installed one in both.
