Thank you, Denis and Wolfgang. Wolfgang, your sentence
No, you set relative numbers (I checked it) but the first columnset environment ends on the third page because you leave just enough space on the second page to fit the text which produces an empty third page. is not clear to me. If \setupcolumnsetlines has to be specified before \starttext and if the second parameter denotes the absolute page number of the column to be limited, then the following example still does not work correctly for the second page (ouput consists of two pages).
\definecolumnset[Two][n=2] \setupcolumnsetlines[Two][1][1][9] \setupcolumnsetlines[Two][2][1][9] \starttext \startcolumnset[Two] \input knuth \stopcolumnset \startcolumnset[Two] \input knuth \stopcolumnset \stoptext Sytse

In your example the second environment starts at page 3 but you change the lines only for the first and second

: Ok. So no need to load the module first. Good.
So the second argument is an absolute pagenumber, not relative to where to columnset starts... But then, this here should work: No, you set relative numbers (I checked it) but the first columnset environment ends on the third page because you leave just enough space on the second page to fit the text which produces an empty
