    it worked yesterday (540)

    i was milling away all day yesterday and called it a night. i forgot the unplug the power supply that all the cnc stuff is hooked to.

    today i look and the 540 has a green light but the steppers are not seeing any power.

    did i kill the gecko?

    so the green light and the estop still work.
    i noticed when the power supply is un plugged the little green light on the gecko takes a second to dim to nothing. while doing this is has a suttle zapping sound as it winds down.........
