    Thanks. Jason was the original poster. I don’t know if he’s got it working yet. Here’s what I know. There was a problem prior to build 370.08 where the PWM channel was being initialized and interfering with the coolant LED. I disabled the PWM and spindle control RPM control to move this out of the way and the Coolant channel was unblocked. It tested out OK on v6 and v7 boards so I  posted to edge (a bit belatedly). You were not able to get the M7,M8,M9 commands working. I retested with the edge tinyg.hex files from both the default directory (AVRStudio4 build) and Debug directory (AtmelStudio6.1 build). Both worked.

    So I’m a bit baffled right now why you board isn’t functioning. You should get a power-on message that looks something like this:

    {“r”:{“fb”:370.080,”fv”:0.950,”hv”:7.000,”id”:”9H3583-RMP”,”msg”:”Loading configs from EEPROM”,”f”:[1,15,0,8118]}}

    {“r”:{“fb”:370.080,”fv”:0.950,”hv”:7.000,”id”:”9H3583-RMP”,”msg”:”SYSTEM READY”,”f”:[1,0,0,3609]}}

    I’ll be out most of the weekend so testing is going to be hard. I like to get these kinds of things nailed, however, so any insight you gain is much appreciated.

    That did it for me Alden. I can now turn on IN2 (really, OUT2) using M7 and M8 and turn it off with M9. This is on my v6 hardware.

    Is there any way to access OUT3?

    Here’s my boot info:

    Just to add on to my previous comment, the LED is also working for coolant now, too.

    After testing with a VOM on the coolant pins, I found that I have 3.3v after a M7 or M8 cmd and 0v after M9.

    Conclusion is the Coolant LED is not working on my board.

    Glad to hear you fund the problem, and sorry it’s board related. Let us know if you can manage this yourself or if you need help from us.
