GalaxyGuy Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 That's not right. Sounds like it's dead. When you apply power to a dimension, the relay should click and the red led should start flashing after about 5 seconds. I'm not sure it is one, but the £50 panels on eBay are £50 for a reason and are a bit of a gamble.

The relay is next to the telecom connectors and the led is near the rs232 connector. If it doesn't click, it's not usually anything simple.
