To find the version number:
From the regular loco screen on the cab: Press prog / esc 5 times to get to "Set Cmd Station"
Press enter
The first thing you see is the command station version that is what we need to know. Hopefully you see 1.65. That is the most recent version.
===========================================================
** IMPORTANT NOTE***
IF you do not use more than three NCE Devices and already have version 1.65, the B version is NOT NEEDED!
