Thanks for your answers !

I'm also convinced sure that the KDA is masked by the KFQSA.
The adress on the KDA has been changed by myself to the adress given by the "config" - command,
1ut unfortunately, the KDA hasn't been detected by "show device".
Tonight, i'll remove the KFQSA and the KLESI and make a new try with the default addess (172150).
