    Thank you for this awesome resource! I hooked up the 2 motors on my Eggbot Pro to a blackbox controller and all was working really well, very impressive. I was trying to land on the right machine controls and steps per MM. I re-flashed it more then once. Suddenly, no movement. I can not jog. On the side of the black box the “Motors enabled” green LED light is not on. When Control software connects to the Blackbox there are no error messages. I don’t want to flash it again for fear of damaging the box (I hope I did not do harm to it already). I tried to press the hard reset button on the side too. No change. I type $ and send but no reply from the black box. Please advise. Thank you for your input.

    Disconnect all wiring, then test again. Short circuits may cause issues like this.

    Feel free to reflash, NB just don't disconnect USB mid-flash or something like that.

    Also, clear the Grbl EEPROM using the buttons on the Grbl settings tab
