See if the 5V regulator is working:
*Locate D2 pin 2. See the photograph on page 2 in the document linked to this post: viewtopic.php?f=60&t=1470.
*Plug in ACORN +24VDC and COM, but nothing else
*Measure from D2 pin 2 to COM. The measurement should be 5V.

There is no need to repeat the procedure in the document.

Marty, can you say with any confidence that "D2=0V" was the result of the procedure given previously? Troubleshooting on speculation is not productive.

transmon is getting an RMA to return his ACORN, so he may not even return to this thread.
I only quoted what he had posted.
My apologies Matt.
I will let you handle these things.
Reminder, for support please follow this post: viewtopic.php?f=20&t=383
We can't "SEE" what you see...

No problem Marty. Be careful to not get blown off course by unclear answers.
