I've read it can be used as the console...but not in my case! The diagnostic LEDs on the VCB02 board never change at all. They all come on during power-on and never go off. The same behaviour was exhibited by ny dead 11/23+ board. Any ideas of what I can check? It's got to be some really obvious error. It can't be plain dead! Don't sweat it too much. I have lots of VCB02 board sets and can send you whatever you end up needing. Bear in mind that, on a KA630, it can take quite awhile for anything to come up on the display. Here's the LED definitions for the VCB02: During test: 111 state on power-up 001 power-up test in progress After test: 000 no faults detected 001 VCB02 base module fault 010 first VCB02 4-plane module fault 011 second VCB02 4-plane module fault 100 not used 101 keyboard fault 110 mouse or tablet fault 111 catastrophic fault -Dave -- Dave McGuire, AK4HZ New Kensington, PA
