Connection between display and power bar board lost
#37
Ok, went and bought a brand new Belkin Cat6 cable.

-Re-loaded the test sketches. 

On the Display serial monitor:
Initializing sd card...
SUCCESS - sd card initialized.
Wait 5 seconds for test to begin
Serial1 Sent Signal to Power Bar

On the Power Bar serial monitor:
Serial1 Received Signal From Display

So it looks like the Power bar is receiving on Serial1, but the display is not receiving the response.


-Swapped in a spare Mega and Due that I have and loaded them both with the test sketches and same results.
-Loaded all of the RT sketches and checked all of the voltages. Still showing the same as above, except only showing about .2v on pin 4 of the ethernet cable (when not connected to the connector board).

In the other thread about connection issues between power bar and display you explained that on IC2, there should be 5v on all of the pins highlighted in red. I'm only showing 3.25v on pin 7 and 0v on pin 15. Could this be my problem?
