Hi all,
I haven’t been able to use my MPCNC in about a month and turned it on today and found out that nothing seems to work. My LCD screen just blinks on and off without anything being displayed and my LED2 light on the board just blinks. I have unplugged everything and it seems to do the same with the steppers and LCD plugged in or left out. My setup was left unplugged and nothing was moved since the last time I use it. (I purchased my kit from here rambo1.4a)
Thanks in advance,
Rob
You can try a re-flash. Not sure what could cause issues other than moisture or static?
I am going to try that.
Thanks Ryan
Okay I’ve tried re-flashing the board and I get this error.
Any ideas? is the board bad? I read the board info and it shows the serial number and everything
Thanks in advance,
Rob

I do have the 12vdc attached to the board which makes the green led2 flash on and off. Also,for me it is com5 and I do see the TX and RX lights flash once the USB is connected(I know that doesn’t mean much). I believe I can communicate to the device because it seems to read the device info. Unless they give you a generic read out. I have switched the com ports also and it gives me a different error.

Hmmm… Might be busted. I don’t know what could have killed it if it was just sitting there.
Do you have another 12 V power supply you could try?
