Paralleling MultiPlus -- older with current.

I have been through the documentation on parallel operation of a MultiPlus, and have configured systems like this in the past. I want to confirm that this system upgrade can happen:

Can older MultiPlus 24/300/70-16 (PMP243020001) Serial Number HG1619HB32B (so manufactured mid 2016) that has firmware upgraded to 2612475 be combined with a current MultiPlus PMP243020001?

The need is to upgrade especially the Battery Charging, but expanded AC capacity will also be helpful.

Same part number: CHECK (Current 24/3000/70-16 are still sold as PMP30200001).

Same Firmware : CHECK (I think xxxx475 is the latest one out there)

"Similar" manufacturing date: Not so much.

Will they play happy together? If not is there an upgrade path available without throwing away the old unit?

Hi @billknny

As far as I could find: you're good, only two versions of the 24/3000 Multiplus:


2610 MultiPlus 24/3000/70-50 (+EasySolar)

2612 MultiPlus 24/3000/70-16
