Early model 18T
We have had many electrical storms role through over the weekend, but the machine was mostly powered off.
The main switch was still on - which feeds power to the spindle drives only.
This morning I fired it up, and all seemed fine.
I was staging the axi's to be able to HOME the slides, and it went dark.
The slides had each moved a few inches I think.
The CRT was scrolling "Check PC Cable" until it went dark.
I have tried rebooting to the main switch level several times, and all I get is:
CRT tries to scroll the "Check PC Cable" message, but you can only tell that there is faint light bars scrolling.
I only know what it says b/c that what was scrolling when it died. I cannot read it - and the CRT is in great condition.
It only tries to scroll that message for 3-5 seconds, and then the CRT drops out again.
Also - the main spindle drive (old skewl - pre Alpha) reads SU-01.
I'm not sure what it should read at this point tho?
Any ideas?
