Hi Frances,
I have not touched the system.fit package for quite some time, but to solve
your problem the following two pointers might be helpful:
1) Recast your model in the revised form, i.e., include your identity directly
into your reaction functions, if possible.
2) For solving your model,
type.

Bernhard

Watch out for the pre-sample values (K = 2); hence you have supplied a dumvar
