Let me be clear here. My original post was entitled "REPLACING current 30 A with MPPT"... there was never any desire, plan, or curiosity about having BOTH controllers functional in tandem...
Great information from this exchange, thank you all... I'm all ears... or rather, eyes...
Obi, Thanks for clarifying...

My set-up in the Class C ,has been
One 20a Tracer MPPT with a 255 panel
One 20a Eco-Worthy MPPT with a 275w panel, and
One 30a Solar30 PWM panel with three 100s in parallel.
They all add their amps just fine when I set their voltages the same.
I have now put the 255w and the Tracer in the Truck Camper we got, so i still have the PWM and MPPT in parallel for 575w and they add their amps just fine.
Too much bogus info flying around!!!! Do it for yourself and see what is true and what is not.
You do need a Trimetric or equivalent to see what is going on, when the individual controller displays say 10 amps each output, and the Trimetric says 28 amps to the battery (which means 2 amps are going to loads)
