    Hello,

    Figured I'd try reaching out one last time before just accepting that I can't use an interface to control my lead 1515. Been at it for about a month now trying to figure this out. Openbuilds sent a replacement interface, then a replacement blackbox, thinking the soldering may have been faulty. The one time I did get it to connect, the commands didn't work on the interface and kept crashing the machine. Now I'm stuck with this error message again, and bout to give up. Really don't want to have to try to control from a computer, and will probably just sell this machine and go a different route to avoid that. Any help appreciated.

    Am in a device test mode on the interface now. Are the buttons on the interfaces notorious for not working most of the time? Some. It seems really hit or miss, sometimes they activate, but not often. Are there any other recommended interfaces to use with the lead 1515? Getting no response here when it tells me to press X+

    Please continue with the store (reply to your existing support ticket) thanks.

    No none of that is normal, and with both replaced, even weirder. Include pictures of all wiring, 3rd party accessories for review. Button issues could be EMI, damage to UARTs could indicate something damaging them electronically. So the store will want to review pictures in depth
