    If you Set Group ON or Set Group OFF via toolkit (via a PCI (Unit 0) ) is writes the "Last Unit to Set" in my case Unit 165 which is my touch screen ?? Why is this so. If you click Modify the Last unit to set it brings up the touch screen also.

    I noticed this same thing and was discussing it in a previous post with the Clipsal guys. I connect via a CNI and notice that several different units (including a TICA and IR output plate) are the "last unit to set" and never the CNI.
    I never heard anything back.........

    Hi Charles,

    The Last Unit to Set is taken from the Database (rightly or wrongly) so if CGate says Unit 165 changed the load then the Unit at Address 165 in the DATABASE is determined to be the Last Unit To Set. If you have a mismatch between your Database and your Network I can see that this would be misleading. When you press the "Modify Last Unit to Set" button the Database unit is presented.

    I have logged a Change Request (#4212) to ensure we change this functionality to be a little clearer and more flexible.

    It this doesnt explain your problem, there is still the possibility that there's a parsing error on the events received by Toolkit from C-Gate, I've taken a quick look at the code and it seems correct.. I'll do some more testing today to double check however.

    Thanks for the report.

    I am also having this problem

    I am also having this same issue. All commands sent through the CNI (whether from toolkit or homegate) are registering as having come from the CTC.
