Title: Hard Meters Disconnected
Post by: GDWtech on September 26, 2012, 12:44:27 PM
IGT AVP 2.0 slant. Hard Meter tilt condition. "Hard Meters Disconnected". Swapped meter board with next machine. No change. Tried reboot. What next? Could it be a fuse on the DC Distribution board or a bad backplane board?

P.S. I did swap out the 2  I/O boards also...

Well after checking all the fuses and connections and swapping out the power supply, I noticed that the comm board mounted to the right side of the brain box had no light. There are 4 connections on the upper backplane called "SENet" J3, 4, 5 and 6. After disconnecting and reconnecting them I finally had a light on the comm board and when the machine booted fully the error cleared. One or both of the comm boards affect the meters both mechanical and soft meters....
Thanks everybody that viewed this...!
