just tried my Peckett which i think has a R8249 in, on Programme  track ,f8, DIR,ADR PUT #8720 in, worked, but when i came to change it back to #4,error 02, only way i could change number was a factory reset, try a reset then add your number

 

I reset the decoder - CV8 = 8  I then tried once again to change it's address on the prog track - F8 >DIR > ADR > 8720 > on pressing enter  > error 02..... time to move on....thankfully I normally avoid Hornby decoders, using Zimo/Loksound/Hatton's/TCS and Lenz instead, never had any issues with those.
