Hi Chirpa651

Here are some additional information partially for the new edition of the Plipbox Deluxe and also for the classic edition (initially asked on the English Amiga Boarad):

Is the PhotoMOS driving off the additional power led?

[/TABLE]
The PhotoMOS is driving of the entire Plipbox as soon as the Amiga is powered off (controlled by the +5V pin on the Parallel port). Consequently, the power LED is also powered off (indicating the correct state though
).

I also noticed the network port itself looks like it has leds on it. Do those work?

Yes, the two LEDs on the Ethernet RJ45 jack do also work fine.

Does the _RESET signal connection account for when the Amiga crashes? (maybe it's sent when the system boots again?
[/TD]
[/TR]
[/TABLE]
The Plipbox resets itself as soon as the Amiga resets, i.e. when doing a soft-reset with the keyboard. On a hard-reset (power on/off the Amiga), the Plipbox resets itself by the _RESET signal AND the PhotoMOS relay of course. When the Amiga crashes with a Guru for example, I am quite sure that the _RESET pin is shortly set to low by the Amiga; also triggering the Plipbox to reset (but not 100% sure, will have to test next time I get a crash).
