My Classic Lite has the
left hand 3 LEDs
blinking on the LED
panel
*This indicates wrong code, If you recently updated code you may have
updated with the wrong model code. Look at the inductor stickers they will
have the model of classic on them also so you can verify and re update with
that model code
When I make changes to
my Classic Lite with the
Local App they do not
appear to stay
*This is generally caused by failing to put the MNLP (LED panel) into Custom
mode. To put this into custom mode set S1 Switches 1 and 2 to ON or UP this
will allow the LED panel to read the classic but not make ANY changes to its
programming so you can program the Lite with the Local App
My Time gets out of
whack on the Local App
when the Classic Lite is
powered down and back
up
*Unfortunately on the Lite there is no battery to back up the real time clock
like there is on the regular Classics, You will need to use the Local App to reset
the time after a power cycle, The Local App will turn yellow if the time is not
in sync with the PC you are viewing it on. And the Local app has a time sync
button on the Basic Configuration tab
I am having trouble
getting my Classic Lite
on the network
*We recommend setting the dip switches for normal operation and DHCP.
Connect to it with the Local App and verify it has connected to the network.
Now at this point we can go switch the S1 switch 1 and 2 to ON or UP to set
the MNLP to custom. Do this with the Classic Lite powered on. Now you can
change the network settings on the Local App if you want.
(Note setting switches to custom first and then powering the Classic Lite can
cause issues trying to connect as it assumes you are already connected, We
anticipate setting to Custom AFTER connecting to the network)
My Classic or Classic
lite keeps going back to
address 10 after I
readdress it to something
else
*There was a bug in older firmware that would cause this. We recommend
updating the firmware and doing a factory restore. (Warning all settings will be
lost) The firmware can be found on our website under the “software” tab. Or at
the URL below.

I am having issues
connecting my Classic
or Classic Lite directly
to my PC without a
Router
*We advise against this as it is more complicated than most people feel
comfortable with. We recommend a cheap router for this as it makes it much
easier. The way to think about this is the Computer and Classic have NO
address until the Router addresses them so if we must go direct we have to
address both of them.
*To do a direct connection we recommend a cross over Ethernet cable. Then
you need to set the Classic to a static IP say 192.168.1.5 then you need to go
into the IPV4 properties on the PC and set it for a static IP also of say
192.168.1.2
Note the important part here is that the first 3 sets of numbers match
192.168.1.xxx for example and that the LAST sets of numbers do NOT match
as this is the unique identifier of where each item is. You will not need to
worry about Gateways or DNS IPs for this connection. For more help with this
see our video on direct connection to Classic or consult your network guru
