Got my boards a few weeks ago. Hooked em up and got only a blinking LED. :-( Reassembled emgeg, verified it still boots and works. double checked all connections. Looks right going by the pics on this thread.


The only place you can mess up, is connecting the TX board to the Empeg and the display board to the RX board. The DB-25 cable will only plug in one way. Make sure you have everything securely and completely engaged. The TX 20 pin ribbon cable connects to the Empeg the same way as the display board. Be certain that the TX board is securely attached to the display board mounts on the Empeg so that nothing can short between the TX board and the Empeg. On the RX board, pin 1 of the display board cable must be connected to the pin 1 position of the RX board. Pin 1 on the display board corresponds to the blue or black stripe on the 20 pin ribbon cable of the display board. Pin 1 on the RX board is on the end of the 20 pin header closest to the large regulator with the plastic rivet in place. If you make sure the stripe on the display ribbon is on that end of the connector and all 20 pins are mated to the RX 20 pin connector, then everything should work. All of the boards and cables were thoroughly tested before shipping. If something was improperly connected, there may be damage however. If you've doubled checked all of this and it still won't work, try measuring DC voltage between the metal part of the jumpers and a mounting hole. It's also possible you have a damaged cable somewhere.

Good luck,
Stu
