    OpenControl Black Box *

    Today I was doing a simple homing check and once my machine hit the z axis limit switch all things stopped. Froze couldnt do anything and as the title states I now have the firmware alarm.

    I removed all wires and left just the usb, tried to reconnect with no success.

    I am able to flash with the wizard with not issues though so that tells me that the usb ports are working correctly which is interesting.

    Notable Mentions :
    - The "motors enabled" and "tool on" leds stay lit at all times.
    - The usb led flashes 3 times when attempting to connect to bbox
    - Used a different usb port and cable with same results
    - When I plug the usb in you can hear a relay clicking on
    - Using MAC OS with no issues in the past

    Its almost like its stuck in a state and cant start reconnect.

    I checked the wires and all looks to be ok

    Any Suggestions??

    Knowing which controller you have would help.
