DGT Foundation diagnostics. chess-publisher talks directly to DGT serial/USB e-Boards at 9600 baud and supports the DGT tournament serial-bus discovery protocol. Manual hardware scanning runs in a background worker so the application window remains responsive. Board Mapping assigns tournament Board 1, 2, 3… by placing the white king on e4 on each physical board in sequence. Live move recording is still OFF and no result data is changed.
