# The beeping sound emits in this condition, disconnected entirely from every ribbon & plug on the printer. | |
# The beeping sound stops when disconnecting the ribbon cable from (logicboard :: powersupply) & reads DC voltages on all 9 positions of the ribbon cable | |
# The beeping sound emits again when reconnecting the ribbon cable from (logicboard :: powersupply) | |
# When reconnecting ribbon cable from (logicboard :: powersupply), the beeping emits & the ribbon cable terminals stop DC Voltages on all 9 positions of the ribbon cable. The 9 position ribbon cable terminals then questionably read AC Voltages. Not an Electrical Engineer, but for whatever reason, the power supply reads AC Voltages, 4VAC, 6VAC, 8VAC, etc… & reading AC voltages with only 1 prong of the meter, not 2 prongs on 2 different terminals. | |
# With ribbon from (logicboard :: powersupply) disconnected & USB Plugged in, the Win7 Device Manager does not trip. | |
Review Tech B. | |
# I believe the Power supply is OK. when disconnected from the logicboard, it discontinues Beeps & reads DC Voltages on all 9 pins. | |
# For unknown reason, the logicboard is shutting down the power supply. with ribbon from (logicboard :: powersupply) connected, it beeps & stops reading DC Voltages on all 9 positions. Then questionably reads AC Voltages 4VAC, 6VAC, 8VAC on 9 terminals. | |
# All cases, the USB Port on the Logicboard will not power up in Windows7 Device Manager & therefore is inaccesible to a USB TTL Device such as Virtual Com Port, FTDI, EEPROM, etc… When plugging the USB Port to Win7 it should at least show up as a “Unknown device”. If it does not show up in Win7 Device Manager, then I speculate it not possible to establish any communication with the Logicboard & therefore not possible to flash any firmware or reset WIC, etc… | |
# Speculative the Logicboard is actually OK & that there is some kind of Firmware / Hardware Lock activated. Unable to Trip the Win7 Device Manager with the USB Port, I am out of options. It is possible a Epson Tech could reset or flash the firmware although I don’t know how if the USB Port wont show up in Win7 Device Manager. | |
+ | # All other parts, boards, plugs & printheads on the printer are probobaly good. Logicboard is locked out. |
