If I want to change the CV38, I know that the M84 must be set to DCC mode. Since my M84 is currently in MFX mode, how do I change it to DCC mode ? Do I need to set it up again as a new device in DCC mode in the CS2 so that I can change the CV38? If it need to set up again as DCC mode, should I use a new address for the M84 so that it would not conflict to its current address setting in the CS2? What should be the steps to achieve that purpose to access to CV38?
