The card he swapped is a different type--old type is not available anymore-- and he was unsure if it was configured correctly. Bus grant cards available here does not service DMA lines which the TS11 uses and he wasn't able to remove the TS11 board and terminate properly to test system without the TS11 in the loop. He went down to regroup and order some more parts. MKIII will be down, still, until at least Wednesday when he plans to return to site.
