MCG/Twist and T-Rudder V on the same blackbox possible?

I bought the T-Rudders Mk.V and have my "older" GF, with the renewed base, I believe bought as MK1 or MK2 and upgraded to MK3 or something like that. It still uses the orange box.
Can I unify those two, so that I only have to use the one blackbox, the new one that came with T-Rudders?
Thanks

The T-Rudder MK V pedals come with the new BlackBox MK3, which is compatible with all previous GFs, except all old pedals.
So connect your GF to the new BB, which already has the new pedals connected.
After that, you should reset the settings to default, re-run the autoconfiguration and calibrate.

Well, if I connect the GF to the black blackbox, I don't see it, anywhere. Whether Z-Bootloader nor VKBDevCfg.
I also tried this, as it made sense to me to try, however, all I get in VKBDevCfg is T-Rudders, even if not connected by RJ45, the left LED is steady, the right nr1 is blinking red. And holding red button on the blackbox doesn't do anything.

For BB MK3 there is only one firmware _BlackBox_Mk3_Unified_v *. It is necessary to reset to default with GF and pedals connected and do autoconfiguration with subsequent calibration.
After that, show the Global-External tab (not Led).

Thank you, got it working, now both pedals and stick are on the MK3.
