    It has just come to our attention that Toolkit 1.1.4 has a defect, which comes up under the following circusumstances:

    1. Create your network in the database, and set up the units how you want.

    2. Connect to the wireless network through a gateway (having previously used wireless Learn to establish communication between the wireless units).

    3. Transfer the programming from the database to the network.


    This will cause the "House Code" of the wireless units to be destroyed, and an internal protection measure in the units detects this and so they refuse to communicate any more.

    You can receover the wireless units by using the Erase to Factory operation (enter Learn, double click, double click again, then press and hold the top 2 keys).


    The workaround is to scan the wireless network, transfer from network to database. Then edit the database, and transfer back to the network.

    This will be fixed in the next Toolkit release.

    Sorry about the inconvenience.
