Single row universal animator command timeout

[Nepa Coin Op]

I have a bb1 giving this error n it’s driving me nuts
This is what I’ve swapped n changed so far
Both cat 5s
Both animator control boards
Button led board
Button ribbon cable
Game was rebooted after each component change
Also tried a clear
Error keeps coming back
All voltages are present at the board on the inside wall of the cabinet


I’m stumped

Did you try the backplane?  You might have an issue with the SPN system.  Also are you wiring voltage to the animator board, or are you driving it through the SPN hub?

BP is about the only thing I didnt swap because of the nightmare of junk in there that needs to be removed to get it out, that was last resort ..... The animation board is being powered right from the BP with a harness...... 5 and 12v are both present going to it...... last attempt I made was swapping MPUs from another game, the interesting thing that happened is The Zeus Still gives the same error but now the planet loot which does not use the hot hot button gave on loading sw " Machine Fault  ASSERT_FAIL assertion=driverServerClient.Connect("SpnDriver")


I am now going to put them back how they were with MPUs back in machines they came out of and clear/reload SW again... then swap BPs.... the Planet loot machine worked fine, can I use the BP from that in the Zeus and if the Zeus BP is bad will it work in the LOOT being it does not utilize the SPN button




Thanks

Abnormal task termination
SpnDriver

Now I’m getting
ID mismatch fault backplane not cleared ....


Ran a clear card 2x


Urgggggggh.   


Did it one more time clearing 2x n it’s now working
Apparently the issue was in my BP ....... can I use the faulty BP board in a game without the animated button ??

Yes, as long as there's nothing else wrong with it.
