Hi Everyone,

I just bought a 1988 Millport 3KVHC 3 axis Milling machine with a Anilam Crusader M control system. I was told that some time ago the CRT screen quit working and someone was brought in to do some trouble shooting on it. Anyways it never got fixed and the machine was just used in manual mode until I bought it. I plan to upgrade the control system, but I would like to get it working first so that I know the parts I plan to keep work, and maybe I can sell some of the old controller parts to help to pay for some of the newer control system.

I opened up the panel behind the CRT screen and noticed a capacitor that was all corroded and misshaped so I changed the cap. Then I noticed a few cables disconnected in the main lower control cabinet, so I matched the labels on the cables to the markings on the board. After this I had my fingers crossed that it would work, but not luck. The fans turn on in the control box, and the power supply has 5v, 12v and 15v etc, but nothing else seems to be live. pressing buttons on the control face does nothing, and it makes no sounds when you try the buttons. (I was told that even when the screen died, the machine could still jog, and even run programs if you knew what order to press the buttons without having the screen)

I'm hoping for some guidance before I dig deeper into troubleshooting this thing.

I'm trying to figure out the following


1) Are all the correct cards here and in the correct spots? ( It has 4 cards total, 1 green,1 red, 1 black and 1 white)
The red and black cards match the dots on the case
It looks like maybe green dot fell off the case?
The white card is not where the white dot on the case is? but if I move the white card to where the white dot is, there are no plastic rails that would support a card?
There is no orange card
Update, I found out that the orange card in the main controller card, so I definitely need that one
The is no blue card
Update, sounds like the blue card is only used for additional I/O's

2) The following 2 connectors were disconnected on the back of what looks like the main board. I matched the I/O3 and I/O4 labeled cables to their respective locations marked I/O3 and I/O4 on the board. This seemed simple, but these locations don't lineup with any of the installed cards? this makes me think i'm missing the orange card, and that the white card needs to move over?
