For existing users of DAC10 boards, it is possible to upgrade the firmware to that of the new DAC20. That will give the advanced control features and LocoNet programming capability.
If you have a DAC10 and it works fine, there is no need to upgrade! For those that do want to upgrade, an upgrade kit can be purchased (currently £10). This includes a new processor chip and a new manual.
A new processor chip will need its serial number setting. The number is marked on the top of the chip, but is not programmed into it. This needs a simple DCC accessory command to set it. The serial number is used only to identify the board for programming using a PC - it does not set the DCC numbers for points etc!
