Vertex 600V and VMDE100 Question

Hello everyone, just got some questions to ask. I'm awaiting the shipment of my charger and programming cable for this radio, and I happened to get my hands on a battery. This is a new in box radio firmware 1.33, and when I turn on the radio, the screen is completely blank. Is this normal do to not downloading to the radio yet? I would at least expect it to say Unprogrammed like my 929 when switching to a un programmed channel. Also, if I get the VMDE 100 board for this radio, does it have built in data operated squelch like the VMDE-200 board? And also, where do you order a new plastic seal once you remove the old one to put in the board? Thanks.
