Title: different classic type can be used in follow me?
Post by: ulisse10000 on April 21, 2023, 08:03:04 AM
Hello,
I would like to know if is it possible to connect in follow me one classic 200 with one classic 200 lite.
I do not see any limitation on the manual I suppose that should be possible.
Many thanks in advance

Fabio

You will need to plug the MNGP (Display) into the LITE to turn on and program Follow-Me.  The warning here is the Firmware in the LITE MUST MATCH and be the same as the firmware in the regular Classic.  If they are not the same the MNGP will mess up the LITE and most likely it will stop charging or do funky things.  You may need to leave the LITE LED Display unplugged as well as it re-programs the LITE when you plug it in.
