[HECnet] DECserver 200/MC - Worth a Punt?

[Dan Williams]

Hi,

So I bought it, as Mark had found another one.   Only thing is it
doesn't seem to be working.

Anyone got any experience with these. I have found a few manuals
online but they all refer to a Technical Manual which I can't find
anywhere.

It starts up with just the Power light on, the 2nd Light does not come
on, which is supposed to indicate self test is OK. The network light
flashes with network activity.
I have a had a cursory glance inside. Everything is connected, nothing
blown up or melted.
There is nothing at all on the 1st serial port. I've tried resetting
to defaults with the reset button and nothing. The guy I got it from
said it was working when powered down.



Anyone got any clues ?
