errors on first time toolkit programming

Sorry for being a newbie, but this is first time attempt at connecting toolkit to some hardware. I had entered into toolkit all my units for first project. I have wired up a PCI, universal 4channel dimmer and single input switch Key1.
I placed the dimmer at address 001, with clock and software network burden enabled.

When scanning the network Tool kit says it located 4 units. Three as expected plus a unit type 'Error failed to scan unit' at address 009.
Then says unit address conflict at 009, and it tried, but failed, to unravell this unit.

I then tried to edit Key1 so it operated channel one of this dimmer, but after editting toolkit to transfer to the network it said it failed.

Am I missing anything.

Does this give clue as to what I am doing wrong?

 

Small networks need a network burden.
It looks like http://www.cbus-shop.com/product_info.php?cPath=161_52&products_id=46, and your PCI had one in its package.

 

There wasn't a physical burden in with the PCI. My understanding is I can use a software enabled burden? Is this insufficient for such a small test network?

 

Still at a loss to get this simple network happening, (now 2 switches+dimmer+PCI.)

It scans, and says it found either 5 or 6 units,
Says error 7092, units with duplicate addresses found
I try to resolve and it fails to unravell error 3772
then retrieves unit info and lists the 4 units + extra item/s of unit type: 'failed to scan unit'

I am also getting 'unit type only - serial mismatch' on the switches under column Exists in Database

And I am unable to transfer programming to the network as i get error 45127, transfer of programming information failed.

the network current consumption is 368mA, Supply 800mA,impedance 767ohms, but i think this is calculated from units, not a real reading.

If I ping the network requesting network voltage, I get 32.5V and 32.1V for the dimmer and PCI, but 0.5V for the switches. Is this normal? Also each time I ping I either get the correct 4 units or incorrectly 4+1 or 4+2 units where the extra unit type is 'unknown' rescan.


Stuck!

 

This should help you enable the burden manually

If you cant connect to the network you cant turn on the burden through toolkit.

 

Thank you for that, I was able to the pre enable a software burden. All works, again thank you.
