Default Re: D Command main unit as extra faders?

So, I was able to accomplish today. The main panel on the bottom right, unplug the two ribbon cables as well as the power from that plate. Plug it in and turn it on, your Pro Tools will see it as a fader pack. Afterwards, turn off the "fader pack", plug the power and ribbon cables back into the main plate, power up and you're set.
DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK
Video of it working
The only issue I found so far is that the banking jumps by 16 channels (since it thinks it's a true fader pack). There might be a bank option, I just haven't looked that deeply into it.
