OK. You have a dual CPP processor. This would have been the upgrade path from release 25.
The CPP CPU contains a Compact Flash 1 gig card inside it.
What I would do is to connect up the serial port directly from the offline processor to a computer using a null modem adapter and probably a USB to 9 way RS232 comm port cable or onto a comm port on a desktop computer etc.
Use one of the two RS232 ports on the front of the CPU card. Try 9600 baud rate and 8, 1, none parity.
Check for any connectivity. You should see some output telling you its offline etc.
If you get nothing, then connect it to one of the ports on the active core. It won't affect service as long as you don't reset the active card. You might need to change a few comm port settings to be able to see output and be able to login.
Once that's sorted, go back to the offline processor and try again to see any output.
If it's no good, then reseat the CPU card with the comms cable connected to see if you can see the boot up sequence. If not then the Compact Flash card could be the problem.
Unplug the CPU, remove the Compact Flash card and plug it in via a USB adapter onto another computer to see if you can read any data from it.
You might have to do a disk format and reload the installation software back in and then join it again.
