Good morning 

 

I'm looking for an article that covers the same process but for the Smart Switch range of appliances in particular I have a stack consisting of 2x #GS728TPS(B).

Mike

    LITMike13,

     

    Welcome to the community! 🙂

     

    Would the process be the same?

    You may follow the same KB article indicated above as your guide.

     

    Also, let me share this old community thread here that was solved by a community member having a stack of smart switches that is similar to your concern.

     

     

    Regards,
