32: Removing the PowerCab chip
to upgrade software.
7) Support for Analog Fast Clocks – I don’t know what this
means and haven’t gotten a response from NCE yet. They are
swamped getting the upgrade out to all the users.
8) New, improved USB/computer commands
I got the upgrade for my PowerCab and installation is a breeze.
First, note any of the settings that you have in your unit, per the
instructions. These settings are stored in the chip you are going to
replace, so they won’t be there once you change to the new chip.
The hardest part is taking all nine screws out of the back of
the PowerCab. Once you have it open, a small screwdriver pry
under the ROM chip on the main board will remove the old
one. I recommend a slight bend of the new leads, as shown in
the accompanying NCE documentation, before you insert the
new chip. A quick visual check that all 28 legs are in the correct
socket and you are ready to put the cab back together and en-
joy your new functions.
