Local/Remote mode (bit[12]), can be only set from the local display menu. When the unit is in Local mode, the unit accepts the commands only from the local display menu and rejects the remote commands; otherwise, when the unit is in Remote mode it accepts the remote command and it is not possible to send the commands from the local menu.

Parallel mode (bits[29:28]), can be only set from the local display menu. Please see the User’s Manual for the detailed information on how to configure parallel configuration between multiple units.
