where exactly in Egypt are you?
Hi there,
I'm facing this error
shortly after the RT board lost bios setting due to flat battery
I tried attaching a VGA and a keyboard and took off the setting for waiting a floppy and keyboard error
then tried to flash the bios using a file siemens sent me but the board didn't load from floppy
I attached the WS HD to it and flashed the bios from there didn't see any changes really
anyway I tried replacing both WS and RT boards and have 2 copies of the HD all gives same error
all system checks passes OK
wonder if some one can help me sending their HD image to try with maybe the software got corrupted at some stage
or guide me what to try next
here is my current software version
Thx in advance

I left you an message check your inbox
ok first so other users can figure it out problem was caused that servo card and io card was not connected.
ok for this error are u getting it on start up or while excuting a M command.
Please call back
during startup at step 2 or 3 I think , I read it could be RT bios flashing thing or fault by the IO card itself !!
OK finally I managed to flash the BIOS of the RT and that solved the yellow fuse error above,
after flashing the bios looks like this
note that I changed Halt on No errors manually
I believe you can do the changes manually and still get the RT working
after flashing you should see this error from the RT booting
which is fine as it cant find the riser board (BBB)
the way I flashed it :
As i couldn't create a working floppy even with Floppy flash drives I had to create a dos5 bootable CD then boot a modern machine (RT didn't recognize any of my CD drives ), then within DOS formatted an old HDD (maxtor 20G) with /s (to copy system files ) then copied the bios flashing tool and files to it , voila used this to boot and flash my RTs
I flashed the RT bios b4 within WS winNT drive (using a 16m RAM) that gave successful message but actually did nothing
now restoring configurations of the machine and setting it up and trying to fix Alarm 39-6
I wish that would help a stuck human somewhere on earth
looks great
i hope u changed drive a to none
and pnp to enable thats how i think it should be.
can you also post bios setting picture for the ws bios so we have this from a working station on one thread...
hope the rest of your problem will fix by restoring configurations
best luck
No PnP auto doesn't work it has to be set manually as shown in the pic
Has anyone received alarm 40-33 after flashing the RT board? The I/O board is good.
Make sure all Your connections and cards are placed correctly and are firm. Reattach each connector to be sure.
u don t need a disk. most common steps to have a working realtime board are.
Exchange batteries.
get an old isa vga board a really old keyboard and a normal monitor and a powersupply.
Disassemble the rt board from the control box
Start it alone with help of the above units.
press f1 or esc or whatever key gets u into bios settings.
In my experience setting everything to default and change date and set halt on fault to never or none is more than enough to get your rt board work again.
after that reassemble everything in its right place.
And you should have a working machine.
Some other users have other rt boards with other bioses like akram on this thread. see the configuration pictures he uploaded.
Best of luck
Hi dear.
I have a Cincinnati Milling Machine. With Acramatic 2100 control. I had a bios battery message. And the clock was constantly erased. I changed the battery on the ws board. Unfortunately, I have ws fail alarms. And does not work.
This ws board model is: aa 670917-310
Do you have bios settings?
please guide me .
