96RAF Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 Version 1.0 - Initial release. Point and accessory addresses start at 60 in order to use all groups of four up to last address 99. Able to control functions 0-4.Version 1.1 - Point and accessory addresses now start at 61 through 99 to accord with NMRA addressing groups. Users upgrading from v1.0 should readdress all their points and accessory addresses to the new system. Able to control functions 0-8. Able to program on the main (POM).Version 1.2 - Improved throttle interface. Changes to setting up default direction switching. Resume operations after a power down/restart. Fix for a bug that puts an R8247 PAD into port flutter possibly leading to failure of that device.Version 1.3 - Programming improved for ESU Loksound v4.0 sound decoders.Version 1.4 - Minor update to correct function control issues.Version 1.5 - Major system upgrade to extend function range 0-28 in support of sound decoders. Change to function methodology. User manual updated.Version 1.6 - Major system update to allow CV’s to be changed and provide improved overload protection. Addendum to the user manual produced.Note that v1.6 is functionally the same as v2.0 installed on late 2019 facelift versions of the Select.The advantage of v1.5 is operation of all functions F0 to F28 and v1.6/2.0 is being able to write to CVs. Note v1.1 had a bug that could damage accessory decoders. Anyone at this revision should not use their Select to control accessories until it is updated.

Fishmanoz Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 Really useful summary for people Rob. Would be even better if “upgrades” in the title was changed to “Version Functionality”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
