TA Instruments Discovery Common Cabinet DCC1 Controller 922001.901 Boot Error

The TA Instruments Discovery Common Cabinet (DCC) is the central processing and touchscreen interface module required to operate the Discovery series of thermal analyzers (such as the DSC or TGA). Featuring a dual-output control architecture, the DCC provides dedicated power and communication to up to two separate analytical modules simultaneously.

Please note: This specific unit is being sold AS-IS for parts or repair due to an operating system boot failure.

Condition Notes

• Condition: Used / Powers On / Boot Error (For Parts or Repair).
• Functional & Diagnostic Status: The unit successfully draws power, the internal fans engage, and the capacitive touchscreen illuminates and functions. However, as documented in the photos, the internal Linux-based operating system fails to load. The screen stops at an initramfs BusyBox shell with the error: "Gave up waiting for root device... ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/... does not exist." This typically indicates a corrupted boot sector, a disconnected internal SATA cable, or a failed internal hard drive. It will require an OS reinstallation or drive replacement by a qualified technician.
• Cosmetic Status: Good used condition. The front orange fascia is clean, and the touchscreen glass is intact. The side panels exhibit standard cosmetic wear, including some localized smudges and scuffs.
