Thanks, this appears to be quite similar to the original formula which,
reordered to look the same as yours, reads

    q = 20.0/2¹⁶        * ZPiezoconst * GainZ * Angstrom;

So the big difference is that is contains 2¹⁶ even though DAC-Type is
invariably 20bits in all files I have ever seen.  Fixing the power to
the actual number of bits seems to do the trick.

I am not sure what you mean by DAC_unit in the formula; is it meant to
be numerically 1 (and just making the units of the resulting quantity
correct)?
