Well suggested!
Earlier this morning I saw a "possible" need to re-seat it. 'Didn't
really look like it was out. But due to the stacking of, bottom to top,
KAT500-K3-XV50-XV144-XV432, and notwithstanding Rene's excellent
T-Connector cabling, I still am forced to use an auto-peeky-mirror, to
actually see behind the stacked equipment.

And having read this response, I peered around and could see just enough
of the silver-tipped plug to give it a push back in.

thanks ..All connected now.
