In Device Manager find something like
The cable has likely been used with some other product that has recognised the FDTI chip and installed this LibUSB driver which is not recognised by the Simple Wizard which sees a different device ID
BEFORE GOING FURTHER REALISE THAT ONCE COMPLETE THE OTHER DEVICE WILL NO LONGER FIND ITS REQUIRED DRIVER.
Right click on this entry in the Device Manager and select Properties from the menu
And proceed to the Driver tab
…and select <Update Driver>
… and Select <Browse my computer for Drivers>

From here you should now be able to connect.
It is important to note that when connecting to the DALIcontrol Duo Mode 3 Power Supply (DCDALCIP250-2) with the DCCABKIT6 programming cable and running DCBMWizard or SimpleWizard that the power supply be in mode 1. To achieve this on the DCDALCIP250-2 press and hold the <ON A> button and momentarily press the <TEST A> button. The Line A indicator will single pulse 5x to indicate the mode.
If there is a compatible driver installed you can try tick Show Compatible hardware, then try selecting one of the drivers below.

Hardware required:
Dalicontrol Dual power supply & SCI - DCDALCIP250-2
USB to RJ45 Programming Cable - DCCABKIT6
PC/Laptop with DALI Simple Wizard Software
Unfortunately DCDALCIP250-2 are not DALI2 certified
There is no certainty that it will work, because there were no tests for bus power supplies before DALI-2.
DALI devices (switches and sensors) are a big risk. There is a big chance both our switches/sensors and DALI2 devices will clash. The switches/sensors use the extended DALI range but this is not part of DALI2. If DALI2 devices use this same range there could be comms issues.
