Sunny Boy Lite controller - can't find Sunnyboys [RE-wrenches]

[David Henry]

Ben,

Did you install the Line Carrier Module in each Sunny Boy? That's 
required and I was a little dismayed when I discovered you can't have 
a display on the SB2500 and the Line Carrier Module or RS485 
communication card.  Mine worked on a local school but the Control 
Lite software was "confused". I sent it back & Kent @ SMA reloaded 
the software.

Regards,
