When you have two or more chargers which are bound to each other via a network cable (Hyperion Network cable) you can group them in the EOS Control & Data suite.
It is not mandatory to do so, but grouping can you a better overview of how your chargers are physically arranged.
When you start the program you get this screen automatically if it detects more than 2 chargers which are connected.
If you do not want to pair chargers and want to skip this step in future, just click the "Don’t show this box at next startup" and press Continue.
To group two chargers together, CTRL-Click the two of the chargers which you want to create a group for.
If you are unsure which charger is which, highlight one of them, rightclick the mouse and select identify, now look at the LCD display of the chargers.
The one you selected to identify will now switch between memory 1-2-3-4-3-2-1 for a 4 second period.
When you have selected the correct chargers, right click and select Pair.
The software will then create a "master" node which contains both chargers.
If you wish to break a pair you can rightclick on the master and select Break.
The result will look like this;
You can rename the "master" in a later stage in the main screen to a name of your liking.
Also, if you want in a later stage to access this window it can be accessed at any time from the Tools menu of the main screen.
The charger you select first will be the Channel 1 charger; the second will be Channel 2
Please note, if you choose not to pair a networked pair of chargers, there will be double entries in the database for each charge, since one of the chargers will report a duplicate set of readings as its own Channel #2, and the other as its Channel #1.
