I turned out that it was a V4.2c without the d of V4.2cd
I used a old Thinkpad 760XL with Win98SE to update the DTC08.
I got problems with the 760XL that he didnt find the DTC08 under DOS
(the COM2 Support seems to work on this Laptop only under Windows).
In the DOS-command prompt from Win98SE the Thinkpad did find the DTC08 
and the
Update could be done:
