Using MNGP Remote to program a Classic Lite
The Classic Lite can be programmed using an MNGP remote. This is an easy way to get into and program not only
the basic functions, but the advanced features as well. In Dip Switch Section 1, set DIP Switches 1, 2, 3, and 4 to
ON. This will tell the Classic Lite's MNLP display to allow custom programming. Next, remove the plug from the
back of the MNLP and plug it into the MNGP. Now, you basically have a Standard Classic. The programming for
this is found in the Standard Classic Manual. (Included on the DVD you got with your Lite) Once programmed in
this way, the MNGP can be removed, and the MNLP replaced. All functions, and voltages programed into the
Classic will now be retained in permanent memory.
Programming the Lite with a Networked Standard Classic
The third method of programming is to use a Standard Classic in the system to program the Lite in a simple “Master
/ Slave” network. In Dip Switch Section1, set DIP Switches 1, 2, 3, and 4 to ON. This will tell the Lite’s MNLP
display to allow custom programming. Shown below is a set of jumpers. All Classics have these jumpers. For proper
operation, you will need to place the small black “Jumper” (
Figure 10
) over both of the pins on the left most header,
as shown in
Figure 11
below. Do this to the Lite only.
The Lite can now be addressed by the MNGP on a networked Standard Classic. Networking is accomplished by
plugging one end of a (user supplied) 4 or 6 conductor phone cable into the “Slave” jack on the Standard Classic.
The other end of this 4 pin cable then plugs into the “Master” jack on the Lite. Use the provided blue cable to
connect the MNLP to the “Remote” jack of the Lite. Connected like this, the MNGP on the Standard Classic now
becomes not only the programmer, but also the digital Graphic display for the Lite. To access the Lite from the
Standard Classic's MNGP, hold down the Left arrow key, and tap the Up arrow. The display should now read
“CLASSIC 2” in the center of the screen. “Classic 2” represents the Lite. By holding the Left arrow, and using the
up and down arrows, you can select between the Standard “Classic” and the Lite “Classic2”
Note: There are currently over 100 possible “Addresses” in the MNGP that can be accessed by holding the left
arrow and tapping the up and down arrows. If you get “Lost” Just head up or down until you find your Classic
(Address 10) and Classic2 (Address 11)
Programming is now done the same as for the Standard Classic. Please see the Classic owner’s manual for more
information.
