Can the same vehicle be set to open multiple devices automatically?

I have a Tailwind at home and at the office.  I've added the vehicle to both Tailwinds.  However, when I set the door to Auto-open automatically on the 2nd Tailwind, it says that "This vehicle sensor is already allocated to a different door".

It seems like this is not possible.  If not, I guess this is a feature request to be able to have vehicles auto-open work on multiple Tailwind devices.

Not sure it if makes sense to have them open multiple doors on one device, so maybe restrict it to only open one door automatically?  Or perhaps, warn the user and let them go ahead with it any way?

Does it make sense to make sure that the multiple Tailwind devices are more than so many feet apart so that there is no confusion as to which one to auto-open or would that be up to the user?  Or perhaps just warn the user and let them go ahead with it any way?

  Vic,

  Please contact us at support@gotailwind.com. Tailwind supports the feature you're asking about. What it does not currently support is opening multiple doors on the same controller. That's coming but not ready yet.

  But when you have multiple Tailwind controllers and they are far enough apart (more than about 1,000 feet), the same sensor can operate both.

  4 Years is a long time, but it seams that opening multiple doors on the same controller still isn't possible.
  Since I only can access my garage through a public garage I'd be pleased when you implement this feature.
