Hello,

I'm looking for some feedback...

Thank you. I just saw your reply. I'll hit my local dealer up again. They never did get back with me the first time.

I posed the question of ''What is a NEO motor" to my nearest dealer. He didn't seem to know anything about them and was going to contact his district Service/Parts manager. That was on July 12...no response from him yet. Would you be able to provide a part number or additional information on the NEO motors? Thank you for your help and insight!

Hello,
I have succcessfully connected to the controller with Curtis handset 1311-4401. There's no password defenetly.
I also managed to change the settings needed for NEO motors.
Now, I "just" have to convince the customer that spending a fortune on NEO motors is a good invesment.

Regards

The Neo motors came out with a service bulletin. yes it does require a software upgrade that is done with a Crown dongle designed for the wave.
I recommend reading the bulletin (12-04-01 )

The new NEO motors don't need new software.
It's just necessary to make 3 changes to settings in the Curtis controller.
This can be done by Curtis handset with OEM access.
The handset can be bought from Curtis.
I'm thinking of buying it but I wanted to check some things.

First of all I wanted to check can the settings be accessed
just with the handset or I need to have password from Crown.

Crownie, do you usually work with Crown equipment?

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
