It's the anxiety sensor. I first learned of these from John, a technician at Prime Computer back in the late '70s. Every summer we would get a crop of new engineering graduates. They would often get frustrated when trying to boot up an machine in the lab. The tech told them it was the anxiety sensor. The machine can sense when the operator is anxious, and will respond by refusing to work correctly. John would then calmly walk up to the machine, flip the front panel switches a number of times, and the machine would boot up. The new engineers would always gawk in awe of this super tech.
