MX 60 Temp Comp Probes [RE-wrenches]

Hello Christopher and Wrenches:
    APS is very excited to see the MX 60 out on the market. I have been
waiting for some MX 60s to arrive.  Do I need to order Temp Comp Probes, or
do they come with the charge controller.  My enquiries last month provided
no answer to this question.
    We have been utilizing the MX 60 to help customers expand their systems
without having to add new 250' trenches, conduit, and wire.  We are changing
the existing 24V array to 48V and then adding a second sub-array.  The new
and improved array utilizes the existing wires.  This application easily
justifies the relatively high cost of the MX 60.
