BRS GIGE Cable not well secured causes restart difficulties

Carlos set the BRS Beckoffs to run on the KVM display.  The display cables are right next to the GIGE cable coming from the BRS camera.  While the Y and X situation appeared different because Carlos restarted EndY but not EndX, neither system was working correctly as it would appear the camera data was not getting to the computer.

Patrick spotted this suttlety as the cable was sort of plugged in but not snapped/latched and had no indication of data stream.  Once these were secured, and the codes restarted, the BEAMs damped quickly and appear to be running normally.

DaveB feels this cable will likely work its way loose with any activity wiggling the connection and may be best to re-terminate the connector.
