Dear chess.com amazing community
I might be a bit daft but I shall ask my question.
I have bought a DGT e-Board. My son and me are keen to use it to play chess and keep record of our games at the same time.
How do I connect both chess.com accounts and determine who is playing which colour?

That's not natively possible as far as I'm aware. I don't thinking the Analysis Board connects to e-boards

You might check out Chessconnect and it might allow the use of an analysis board to work though; https://www.chess.com/forum/view/chess-equipment/chessconnect-a-chrome-extension-for-chessnut-air-and-chessnut-pro-smartboards?newCommentCount=2&page=55#comment-107550447

Otherwise, you could export the PGN after and upload it to the Library feature to save a copy though.

It seems its rather limited to chessnut set.
