Hello Jim,

Highly likely it’s dead, however before the funeral check to see if the battery in the control unit that has the panel in it is dead.

That would be the first-known-to-me AS/400 or successor where a dead battery prevents the machine from just working. So far, it seems to just keep the clock alive.

In fact, I know someone owning a 170 with a dead battery that was exactly matching my experience.

:wq! PoC
