What you describe does not make sense
If the SIM is plugged in correctly, it can send and receive from CBis
If it is not plugged in correctly, it cannot send or receive from Cbus
If plugged in correctly, the RDY (green) LED on the UCM should be on, and the BUSY1, BUSY2, ERROR (RED) leds should be OFF
See the attached photo for the correct pins to plug in

Hi ident
The the RDY (green) LED on the UCM should be on ( ITS ON AND NOT FLASHING )and the BUSY1, BUSY2, ERROR (RED)9 THE ERROR FLASHES EVERY2 SECONDS ) AND THE SMALL leds ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE CBUS SIM FLASH EVERY 4 SECONDS THE LEDS ON THE RIGHT OF THE SIM (GREENAND RED FLASH VERY FAST..
not sure whats happening here but... the c bus sim is plugged in corectly and no joy
i tried the phone login and i still et communication error 18 ??
Buy the Way Error 2 Stays on

If the ERROR led remains on it means that it is not detecting Cbus
Are the SW7 shunts are set correctly for UCM #2 ie A removed, and others B to D inserted and are the D9 RED led and D10 (green) leds both flashing?
If the D9 and D10 leds are not flashing that means the ID is incorrect
The shunts may be having poor contact. Try using shunts from elsewhere
Do a Scan for UCMs in Comfigurator Modules Tab

The ID Seems Correct As D 10 And D 9 Are Flashing On the C Bus UCM And On My Unicersal UCM..I Have Tried New Jumbers on the SW 7 A Removed B inserted And c inserted
As For Comfigurator im Still using Mindit V 2.0
As My Local Clipsal Supplier insists In MIND it

You will have to explain more clearly what exactly is your configuration.
What is the UCM/Cbus ID?
What is the UCM/Universal ID?
You say you have A not inserted, B inserted, C not inserted in one of the posts
This is an ID of 6!
How many UCMs do you have? and does it correspond with the Number of UCMs in Mindit?
You say you have Communications Failure 18. This means UCM ID2 is not communicating
If you have D9 and D10 leds flashing on the UCM/Cbus then it should not be the UCm which is failing to comunicate
You may have a clash of UCM IDs. You must not have 2 UCMs with the same ID
Make sure each UCM is set to a unique ID 1,2,3 etc and there must be no missing Ids ie you cannot have ID1, and ID3 with no ID2
I dont think flashing the firmware is going to solve the problem if it was working
before you removed the SIM. Mindit V2 does not support flashing anyway
Let us have ALL the products and their firmware version in your system
Mindit firmware?
UCM/Cbus firmware?
Universal Firmware? Are you sure you have this type of UCM as it has not been released formally? Do you mean a normal programming UCM ?

The photos do not help much
Can you answer the questions I asked in the previous post please?

Hi ther ident
unfortumately i Do Not Know the ID And Shunt Requirements
but I Seem Yo Have Lost The Communications error 18
and can Arm The Alarm Via Telephone Now.
The System Was Working Perfect For 3 Years Not one Glitch
Then While doing a Plumbing Change in The Ceiling i Hooked The C Bus Cable. So i Cut the Power Off And Reset From There No Cbus To Minder/Comfort..
I Installed Comfigurator 3 And Got the Following
Exception while reading vocab.cfg:
System.Exception: Error reading C:\\Program Files\\Cytech\\Comfigurator 3\\Config\\vocab.cfg: Could not find file \'C:\\Program Files\\Cytech\\Comfigurator 3\\Config\\cs-wl-th.cfg\'.

Can you get someone on site to take a look at your setup?
It may be too difficult to find out enough info from here
