Cy,
I was letting it run unattended so I am not sure and did not make note of it.  However, the error message said that the file had "timed out".  I know it was late in the list of files and I am guessing here but I think it was the test where the solenoids should fire at a rate that allows you to observe key dip to be full and checking to be at the same height as when the key is played manually.  I also ran the test one more time as we spoke about this evening and the complete set of files ran without a problem but alas the keys still do not play???????  I wish I could say I loved this mystery.

Steven,
When we talked about this, there was one more data item to add: one of the tests you ran from the Silent Drive setup CD failed. Which one was that?

First system install IQ with Airport Express using an iPad with music from PD loaded through iTunes with the following things correct:
1.  All hardware installed correctly.
2.  Solenoids firing when chromatic test is done through the CPU.
3.  Learn mode for keys and pedals works and the solenoids fire as does the pedal.
4.  When a song is played on the iPad through the IQ wirelessly or connected directly to the iPad via the earphone jack the sound of the singer or band is heard but the piano does NOT play.
5.  The Silent Drive HD setup CD and its 40 + files have been loaded through iTunes onto the iPad and have been played to set up the driver boards.  During this setup the voice of the man is heard but the fax sounds are not which is correct.  Just FYI this setup has been done.
6.  When the level test is performed on the IQ - a song is playing on the iPad with volume settings according to manual - when the led is lit for level test and then the + - button is pushed the singer sound disappears and the three flashing lights blink continuously and do not stop unless I stop it.
7.  All cords have been checked and are good and they are in the right place.
8.  I have the IQ checked on the iPad so I know it is playing through the system and it is.
Thoughts from anyone who has experienced such troubles or might know what I could try?
Thanks,
Steven
