Please take care. Some CNC machines contain their programs in battery-backed RAM. This data may be lost if performing a digital test and you may need to have the program reloaded by the original manufacturer. Digital RAM tests mean the RAM will be erased and tested with a pattern of 1s and 0s. Only learn reference boards with battery RAM based programs if you have the tools to reload the original data back into the battery based RAM.
