It isn't clear if it was working and stopped, or if this is the first time you've tried to make it work. If this is first try, need to confirm cards and cables on DEK, and what interface is configured on UIC. I have SMEMA cards in stock if needed. P

Power up your machine and look at the vision card. If it has a red light then there is a problem with it. 20k is way to much to spend to fix this. I've sent out two cards for repairs in the past and got them fixed for $2200 each. If you want more inf
