Have you anything on the memory card?
Check the contrast of the LED.

Check the contrast of the LED. It is the small black button. I was able to read my LED even with out a card in it.

Can you hear my machine carving in the background? Problem was led contrast control was to far clockwise fading out the text on the led. rotating led control counter clockwise allowed text to show up. All is well now. My first job is carving nicely as we speak.
Happy Camper :D

Good Job Ken !!!! As Maxwell Smart would say about now.... The old LED Counter Clockwise Contrast Control Trick.
Being a retired Navy Technician, I remember my friends being woke up at 4 AM on my old Tin Can's because someone turned the Brightness knob down on the Radar Display on the Bridge. A quick fix, but driving a ship around blind is no fun.
