Once powered up the LED will turn off and only engage when the 32k is being used. Note: The 838-32k-SC module is powered by the 838-IO Plus and not the console. To use this module inside the 838-IO Plus SC the PEB must be powered on.
Using the recommended 50 pair twisted pair double shielded cable allows for only one side of the grounds to have to be connected because along with the shield ground wire connected to the metal housing then all become grounded since the 838-IO Plus boards DB37 mounting poins are also grounded in the circuit.

Testing You can access the PEB interface and other cards within the PEB as you would with a standard Flex Cable Interface card. In Extended Basic typing SIZE and press enter will show you the amount of memory available for base and expanded. Accessing storage devices such as floppy disk, hard disk and ram disk all work as you are used to.
To verify access to other PEB cards then use the standard commands from TI Basic/Extended Basic/Editor Assembler or other utilities to access your systems expansion cards.
