MemberFIXED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! cmcgrath5035 you are great!!!! Thank you so much!!! shoot me an email at uepmatthew AT Gmail.com and I will keep my word of sending the person who solved this a reward of a nice cold beverage of their choice! Send me an email for paypal and I will send the drink funds! You rock!!! Now to get the mill back in production and get caught up!
Thanks again!
MemberYes mine blinks as it should and it is a windows system. Any chance the board can be switched with one that will take firmware? Having the mill down is really hurting.
MemberOK I did the update app and it did the same result with both the “Attepmt automatic reset” button check and on checked. I did not touch the TinyG and I restarted the computer before I launched the app to make sure nothing else was running. But I get the same result where it says right away that “verify failed” and nothing shows up in the console. I am very willing to send the TinyG in to find out what is wrong with it. It is a great little controller which I love and has done amazing work for me on my mill. I can be reached at uepmatthew AT gmail.com. in the mean time i am open to help on the AVRdude aspect. I can move the needed stuff to any directory to make the CMD line easier for someone if that might help. But I truly am at a lose. Thanks for all the help guys!
MemberOK i tried the new firmware install app and I still get the same result. It shows up as com3 and says I have 435.1 when i ask it to lookup. I hit the reset button on the TinyG and it starts flashing red. I hit the Go button and it goes to the next screen, says CONNECTING for a split second then shows VERIFY FAILED! and nothing shows up in the console at all. I have never been able to flash a new firmware to this TinyG. I tried a few times before to keep it nice nd up to date but it never worked. Always failed. But untila few days ago it ran fine and i could cut large 25+HR jobs without a worry. Now it seems to crash every few hours during a job and loses zero to reboot it and have it respond at all. Sort of at my wits end right now honestly.
But I am willing to try anything as I need my mill back in production ASAP.
To answer the other Questions: yes I am on A Windows PC. I have tried using both the Arduino AVRdude and also the one linked on the Synthetos page. Both failed for me but I am not 100% sure i had the right thing typed into the CMD line as I never use those and I ended up seeing the “Need config file” message and I am not sure I ever got the whole long line right in the CMD line.
I have rebooted and made sure nothing else is running on the computer when i tried the firmware app. So far no joy, always does what I said above for the app. I an grateful for all the help and I feel sure someone out there has the answer aside from having to buy a new TinyG to get back up and running.
MemberAlso having issues with the app not working. Hope we find ot more info and get it working shortly so the needed 440.15 can be flashed and the TinyG will be stable with Chilipeppr again.
