According to my chart, the DKC100XG control unit came with the DGH1BXG, 
playback only Disklavier (made from 1996 to 2000). You mentioned that your 
piano is a model DGP1XG. I am not sure of the descrepancy.

Given the various permutations of the Disklavier (record & playback, record 
only, Pro, et cetera), the terms Mark II, Mark IIXG, and Mark III tend to be 
used somewhat loosely. If your unit is a DGH1BXG, the playback features of 
your instrument most closely match a Mark IIXG piano by virtue of the 
built-in XG tone generator, the support for Type 0 and 1 Standard MIDI Files, 
and the support for high-density disks.

The DGH1BXG came out less than a year before the full-featured Mark IIXG 
Disklaviers.
