You are right. It display BAD I/O. When I source it with Altek. the Altek just indicates that the loop is open. When I set AOUT=50% and measure the AOUT channel, multimeter read zero. I suspect that it could be a hardware error. I mean probably the FBM204 is bad. I have tried it with another empty slot, another new type I cable. But nothing changed. But I don't have another FBM204 in hand, so I can't confirm if it's FBM204 problem. Later, I will try it, and if found the answer I will send a mail to list. Thank you all. It's so good to have you all.
