I unplugged my screen from the aquabus, then plugged it back in after moving everything to the computer, and now it will not light up. Did I just ruin my display or what?

I wish I could say the same thing for my display I haven't been able to get mine to come up for a few days now when I went to work it was fine I came home and it's been gone ever since we thought we would try deleting the module now we can't get it back so I'm assuming it's unable to find it
I tried unhooking the display ,new firmware, going back to an older configuration and keeping everything unhooked for 24 hours. which brings me to here I was hoping to see somebodys thread and have it help me.

What Curt told me was, you're not suppose to plug the Display directly to the PC due to different voltages and possibility of a surge.
That's why he recommends you connect your controller through a surge protector as it can easily blow it's capacitors.

It's not the screen that is damaged, rarely is.
You may need to check the base module to see if it still works.
Try connecting to your Apex via your network, if you're able to access it no problem then surely, it is a display problem.
If you're unable to access the Apex, then we clearly know what the problem is.
