    I able to get it back up and running. I was not able to get it to load for the longest time but then I found an forum post stating that version 6 of avrdude doesn’t seem to work. Once I switched to 5.11 things worked fine.

    Yes I am using Serial operation from the due which outputs 3.3V. Even with a level shift I seem to have difficulty getting the RX or TX light to even flash let alone a move command. Would anyone have an example of a move command that could be serial printed to the tinyG that should work?

    Thanks,

    Bryce

    I appreciate all the advice,
    It would be great to implement this motion controller into our products and designing an easy system for calibration and talking to it through a microcontroller should help accomplish all of our needs. Furthermore this community seems to be full of people willing to help which is great to see.

    I will try and get it functional with a firmware update and post the results.
    Thanks

    Thanks for the help, Unfortunately I don’t have an Atmel programmer but I guess I should look into getting one.

    Thanks,

    Thanks for the quick response!

    So I poked around as you said and still see a good 3.3 everywhere. The power led still lights up and the spindle direction still blinks on start up, just not the pwm pin. The Tx still appears to receive the signal as well (blinks) just doesn’t do anything.

    As far as the Arduino Due is concerned your right that it is 3.3V, I can use a level shift to bring it up to 5V if that is the case.
