I think this is the first post for me, but I've been lurking for awhile and have much appreciated the knowledge I've gained here. So thanks!
I bought a mixed lot of Megatouch units awhile back, mostly XLs, but there was also a dead Ion Elite and another dead Ion Aurora. The Elite is now up and running and I finally got around to tearing into the Aurora. It has numerous issues - dead hard drive, dead power supply, dead motherboard, but I've been working through it. Since my plan is to install it in a repurposed XL upright cabinet, I began taking out all of the components today.
After removing the power switch assembly, I noticed a small board under where the MyMerit key reader is located. Upon removal, I flipped it over and was surprised to see a second Dallas iButton security key. It lacks the "spoon" plastic of the normal key, but it's definitely a second, well-hidden key.
I haven't seen any mention of a second key in all my research on this unit, so I am wondering of anyone has any insight.
Thanks!
