Jim,

The normal meaning of INFO 080 is that one of the firmware chips is not
talking properly with the MCU.

The first thing I would do is remove all options from the K2.  If the Info
080 remains, take a look at the voltage supplied to the MCU and IOC as first
order of business (and check for 0 volts on the ground pin too), then try
another 456 reset.  After that I would start tracing the AUXBUS signal path
to be certain it is intact.

I you have an older level MCU and IOC in hand, put the back level ones in
just to see if the INFO 080 goes away (caution, with the keyclick mod
installed, you need the latest levels for operation, but the older level
should allow you to troubleshoot THIS problem)

73 and Good Luck,
Don W3FPR
