Hi, i'm using a Lotem 400, worked fine yesterday, but today monitor screen does not have video signal
the keyboard lights turn on when booting, but still no signal.
I've change monitor and vga cable
Cleaned the PC board with processor and RAM memory.
Check all fuses.
i'm running out of ideas.
Any clue on how to solve the problem? Thanx
 
Check the voltage output of the power supply and try to use a computer power supply to see if it works. Also try another RAM memory module.
 
I tested with another power supply and RAM memory but still no video signal
The Num Lock key on the keyboard seems to work
The door alarm works when i left open.

Before this problem the yellow buttons were not working properly, had had to push several times to start the application.
Any other ideas? thanks
 
Hi, if PC starts after pressing power up button in front of it, exchange the back-up battery, another sign of battery failure is wrong time and date (if one manage to boot it up).
 
LoWang, you mean the lithium battery at the standard controller? seems to been atached to the card. :(
No luck so far. I'm trying with a PCI vga video card into a free pci port.
 
No, I meant BIOS battery - Does PC start after pressing power-up button on front panel OF PC's enclosure?
 
If you need help contacting Kodak for support please let me know. Kodak purchased Creo in 2005 (who merged with Scitex previously). We still service the Lotem 400 platform, and can provide support.
