Hi Jerry, thanks for the information. I had built several terminators, but being terrible at geometry I always did something wrong. I have now fixed one of the terminators I built. I had pins 1 and 40 mixed up, the rest of the terminator is basically a mirror copy. Unfortunately I still have the same error. I have an RX02 drive but no controller yet, so I'll have to continue investigating in the dark. Thanks, Aaron.
