I purchased my system back in 2007 or 2008. I have not upgraded the software. When I turn on my remote it shows version 4.00. I am interested in getting another remote as I am in the process of building a new layout. I see some on eBay that say they are version 4.10. Will that work as is with my system or do I have to upgrade the software? Thanks, John

John,

 

The new remote will, most likely, work fine with your DS 4.00 TIU. However, 4.00 has a few bugs, one of which can make adding engines problematical. I strongly suggest that you update your existing remote and TIU to DCS 4.20, the latest release. The new 4.10 remote will work fine alongside DCS 4.20 components. Of course, the best thing to do would be to upgrade everything to DCS 4.20.

 

In any event, I would strongly recommend that you only purchase new DCS devices from an authorized MTH dealer. Otherwise, you won't get an MTH factory warrantee.

John;

I too recommend upgrading to the latest release.

Lots of nice new features, esp going up from 3.1

I Purchased my DCS from a forum member and upgraded it from 3.1 as well.

It was not difficult if you follow the directions precisely.

Beware where you plug in the cables and exactly which cables you use.
