Re: [RE-wrenches] Outback Mate remote programming

[Roy Butler]

Kirk, It's as you suspect, that the programming resides in the FX computer board. The only programming that resides in the Mate is for the AGS and HBX. How about making him a "cheat sheet" and give him a live "how to" demo at your shop. He's gotta provide the beer though....

Will I be able to plug his Mate into my inverter, program it for his inverter, and then have him take it home and plug it into his inverter and have the parameters transfer somehow to his inverter? I suspect the answer is no, but thought I’d check. I assume that the FX parameters are not stored in the Mate but in the FX itself, hence “you can’t get there from here”, as the old saying goes.
