If there are several followers in your system, only the follower with the high-
est CAN bus address participates in the tap stagger function.
Special operating situations
▪ If you switch the master from auto mode to manual mode during the tap
stagger parallel operation method, the follower immediately switches to
the master's current tap position. To avoid this, you must activate manual
mode on both the master and follower simultaneously.
▪ If you change the parallel operation method of the master from tap stag-
ger to master, the tap stagger level is first reduced to 0 before parallel op-
eration according to the tap synchronization method becomes active.
