The smoke came out

Post by amegger »

So I accidentally connected +24VDC to EN2 and smoke came out while doing the bench test.... :oops: Now none of the screw terminal outputs work and all the relays on the relay card are stuck in the on (green) state. Activating a relay output just makes the green led dim a bit.
The heartbeat/communications are still good and motors still move (connected thru the DB25)
Question is can I purchase just an acorn board minus the BBG and use my BBG? or do I have to buy a whole new kit?

Guess its cheaper than a new one, especially after the price increase. Is the board serial# the label/barcode on the DB25?

The serial number for Acorn boards are the last 4 digits in the SystemID, found in the first F1-Setup page.

The board still works, just the outputs are nonfunctional, I'll get the system ID. Thanks
