    I have a 20 year old CBUS installation that I access via 5500PC module. My C-Bus Toolkit software is currently version 1.15.5

    I want to replace my old output units with the new LED compatible ones (both for update and to increase longevity of my system).

    I'm sure I need to update to the latest version of toolkit (1.19.0), but I recall when I added my LSS5500SHAC that I had to install sequential versions of toolkit in order update my config files for the system.

    Please help me with a few questions!

    1) Can I just import my config files into the new version of Toolkit, or do I need to sequentially install previous versions and convert one at a time? Also if I have to do this am I better installing on a second PC? (Asking as I only have one PC these days as I use Mac 7 I don;t want to loose my current, working, set up!

    2) Should I keep using my 5500PC or can I use my 5500SHAC?

    Any other advice welcomed.

    Thanks
