[RE-wrenches] Radian Question

Hey guys, it's been a while, but 7 years ago they were, the same, and the
ribbon cable/location of the module denoted which one was the master...

If I remember correctly, the one closest to the mainboard is supposed to be
the "master".

If you swap out the outside one, and it's still not powering up, then swap
them, you can also test it with just one module to eliminate any other
issues.

If you still don't get power-up, there is either a control card issue (I
see you've done the power supply and control card as well) or a cable isn't
seated correctly.
