Solved Software connects, but printer will not heat or move...

Sorry if this is a duplicate request, but I couldn't find anything via search...

My Robo printer (one of the original versions from Kickstarter) will connect to Repetier and MatterControl (at least it tells me it's connected). But, I cannot heat the extruders or move the printhead, let alone print. The controller board has power, but nothing seems to connect.

Do I have a bad controller board? Or, is there some override switch that's possibly restricting motion and heat? If it is the controller, can I order one?

I appreciate your help.

BTW: The printer was working just fine for a few years. However, it's been sitting for a few months. I started it up last night, and nothing.

Thanks

 

Thanks for the help. Gave it a try, to no avail. I'll keep searching.

 

I've turned ACK on to monitor the communication, and when I send a command, the corresponding G-code is recorded, and I'm receiving an "ok" back from the printer. This happens for movement and heating commands. Also, with ACK on, it appears the printer is successfully polling about once each second.

Also, if I slice a file, the G-code is created and queued up. But, when I ask it to run, it just seems to be waiting for the extruder to reach it's proper temperature.


***************** Wait... something else here.... I just noticed that I get the same communication feedback with the printer unplugged from the wall. So, the USB from the laptop to the Printer seems to be giving the processor enough power to communicate, but there may not be power going to the rest of the system. The green light on the processor board will light up, even when the printer is unplugged.??? Could be a power supply issue, which I'll now test...
