I connected two wires with lose ends to Out4, which I have never connected to, for experiment.
I am not turning Out4 on through the controller.
When I force NC (led on) and test for resistance, I get none, which makes sense.
When I force NO (led off) and test for resistance, I still get none, which, to me, makes no sense.
Am I not comprehending something?
For the Output board, all the lights are green when it is connected.
So looks like bad I/O board unless there is a way to turn them red, as in the acorn install manual.

If the Acorn's Output L.E.D's are working but the Relay board's Led does not match the output change then it does sound like the Relay board is cooked.

I doubt the Ribbon cable is the issue, but it should be tested to make sure there's breaks

Next step is to replace the Relay board.

The new relay board is in, but the lights are all green and not corresponding to the H10, which shows all red.
