Dear All,
I am trying to start a board assembled and programmed by me.
Board was designed by "PowerBook" user :

https://www.synthetos.com/topics/tinyg-v8-no-motor-driver/

When I connect /reset the board , after few secconds I get the message : {"r":{"fv":0.970,"fb":440.20,"hp":1,"hv":8,"id":"1G0509-BLN","msg":"SYSTEM READY"},"f":[1,0,0,5376]}`

But this is almost all. I cannot get other answer from board on any string that I send there. I have been using Bray Terminal and cool terminal.

Somehow ChiliPeppr seems to recognize this board .
However It's not clear for me if is a kind of a bidirectional communication.

I have tried to upgrade the firmware from Chilipepr. I get a AVRDUDE error:
"Connecting to programmer: .avrdude.exe: butterfly_recv(): programmer is not responding"

Could you please advice with what commands I should start to test the board if is answering ?
I will try next to check again fuse settings. and after that to inspect with an oscilloscope the FTDI serial communication.

any hints will be greatly appreciated !

br,
DAniel
