I told you how to in your 2nd thread.

Remove the DB-37 cable from the digital sidecar and verify that all 3 power LEDs on the Digital Sidecar are brightly lit. If they aren't, make sure the digital sidecar is powered from a 20amp circuit from the PDB.
By creating 3 different threads, and not following the advice in previous threads, you're making it harder to help and take longer to get to the root cause.
