If you wish to be more precise in setting your throttle response curve, loadable speed tables let you define each individual speed step for a locomotive. Once you have defined the speed curve you like, you can use the forward and reverse multiplier to move the curve up or down in speed.

Setting up a loadable speed table involves setting many CV’s since you will set a value for each of 28 speed steps. Many DCC users find that using a computer based programmer makes this process much easier. When you use a computer, you can even save the speed tables you like and load them into other decoders quickly and easily via the computer.
