Digitrax Releases New DT602/DCS52/UT6/UR93 Firmware Update

Digitrax has released a new DT602 firmware upgrade dated 31Mar2021. There is also an update for the DCS52 dated 26Mar2021. These upgrades include fixes for writing to extended CVs (above 255, the author helped beta test this on Soundtraxx decoders and it works!). There are also updates concerning the fast clock and timing issues with UR92’s with extended slots on/off. There is still an issue with the fast clock where entering a value of 11:00PM will result in a value of 5:00AM. As far as the author knows this will be deferred to a later firmware update (he was not able to test this due to lack of time).

Lastly there is a change to the switch commands. When a closed switch command is sent from a throttle a closed and open LocoNet message is sent, with the open command ignored.

So now when you push a closed command and hold it, a LocoNet message will close a turnout and then respond to the open command once the closed button is released. The author also did not have time to test this.

Glad they were able to fix the extended CV writing! This was an important one.

The updates are available on the Digitrax website here.

There was also an update to the UR93 which has not been released yet. Unfortunately, the author was not able to partake in testing this as he utilizes a UR92.



If you have an idea for a blog post here, let me know. If I can comment on it, I will or I'll see if someone else can and post it.
