I have two Classic 150s. Today I got them working via the Local App. Each has an Ethernet cable to the router, DHCP addresses, and both show up in Local App. Both are on Firmware 2126.

I tried to set up My Midnite. I have the first one communicating fine. Trying to set up the second, when I go to Net menu to get the MAC and ID numbers, both are all zero.

What is happening?

Is the second Classic in Follow Me mode ?

Are you looking at the mac and network address on the MNGP ?

The two Classics are controlled by the SMA inverters. My understanding is Follow Me mode is disabled when in SMA Mode.

I am looking at the addresses on the MNGP. Classic #1 had the numbers, so I was able to connect. Classic #2 only shows zeros.

What happens if you connect with the Local Status App ? Can you see the data on both of the Classics

On MNGP when you go to NET menus  the third screen has Web Access:   Is this enabled ?
