Universal GSM1 startup error | 4 August, 2015

OS/2 UIC version 3.2.3

Powerup seems to go OK until, while the GUI says ...initializing..., an error popup appears saying "Did not receive request to load machine model within timeout period. Possible machine error condition exists. Do you want to continue waiting?" If I click Yes, the status changes to "Waiting to load machine model," and eventually the popup appears again.

What component requests the machine model?

Noticed during the pre-GUI startup it said VME loader 1877584 bytes, remaining time :26 sleep 20 Were there supposed to be progress messages before the sleep?

It could be a blown fuse on the power distribution panel or a failed power supply. Check the power distribution board in the front lower center of the machine. There are 11 LEDs on the board and 10 should be ON

The power distribution board has 10 green LEDs on. By the time of the error SysFail is still on. Logicomm connected to the Force board COMM2 shows a stream of messages saying "Lantern system not active. Heart Beat = 0"

It would be helpful to know what happened before the error occurred. Do you have another machine so that you can swap some boards? The Force CPU, (machine controller) located in the VME, is responsible for controlling all machine-related activities. During initialization, the Force CPU must load up with a machine control program and then check if all it's slave processors are ready to work. (Motion control boards, Vision processor and MMit I/O boards) Then it downloads information from the hard disk to itself, its global memory and the slave processors with machine data, such as servo curves, calibration model files and I/O addresses. If any of these processes fail, Initialization never completes.
