Mach 4 says ESS not connected
« on: July 13, 2020, 01:26:27 PM »
Hi there,

Currently I'm trying to config my ESS and Mach 4, but when I hit the config and go to the ESS plugin, it keeps saying that "it does not appear that you are connected to the ESS board." I have checked with the SCU software from Warp9, and it is receiving successful pings, and the board is receiving power just fine. I have also switched out the Ethernet adapter cable, and its the same result. The upper green light LED on the ESS is also just doing 2 short blinks (nothing else).

I am not sure what else to do here to fix this, anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,

Hi,
you need to go to the Warp9 forum and request Andy's help.

I had a bit of a battle trying to get the ESS to connect initially, my own fault as it transpired. In particular I had
messed up the firewwall settings.

The SCU is good for 90% of occasions, the other 10% require some in depth diagnosis even if the eventual solution is fairly
simple. Take advantage of Andy's expertise.
