Chris,
It all looks very familiar, but I did not find the answer. I'm  
starting to think that the long wire runs we have to make for our  
pusher installations have something to do with it? My wiring was done  
by an retired electronics professional and was first class. At the  
beginning I was getting on my EM2 screen characters that looked  
Japanese? Tracy recommended a filter that solved the problem. Looks  
like the long wires were picking up some electrical noise?
Wish you good luck.
Buly
