    Hello Openbuilds Community.

    I have a leadcnc with a blackbox.

    The blackbox has ceased to function.

    Gbrl is missing from its brain. Missing firmware error.

    Was working great then stop mid surfacing operation.

    Followed the troubleshooting and disconnected everything. No change. Tried to reflash. It fails. Tried on a different computer, same story.

    Is it dead or can it be saved. By saved I mean can I fit it at home without needed to return it?


    Thanks
    Jonathan

    Refer to docs:blackbox:faq-usb-connection-failed [OpenBuilds Documentation] (note the very last step in the documentation)

    Thanks I'll contact Openbuilds store. Had fingers crossed for some magic button that would resolve my issue. Guess not

    Sadly not. Though while you wait on them, go over all the wiring again. Its usually related to some kind of wiring issue either causing a temporary short, or causing more permanent damage
