Try applying power only on the power control line. It is the 2 pin header near the I/O connector.

Then see if it connects to the utility. In the run tab, you should see undervoltage led on.

If you then apply power on the vmot line, then the undervoltage should go away. If there is indeed a short, the short led status light will come on.

Were you running any type of script, or did you recently do a flash update of the firmware?

a script is running and i am giving power from power control but its not connecting with pc utility... what should i do now

You need to stop the script by sending in the terminate as soon as it tries to connect.

Power off controller.

In the scripting tab, type in

terminate

Power on controller.

Then click on "Download to device" as soon as the pc tries to connect to controller.

serial device mb202i was short so i took it out so i cant connect via serially to pc utility and secondly my usb is also not working whenever i try to connect my usb to pc its gives error "usb device is not recognized" so what should i do now

At this point, if a short is detected, then the controller needs to be repaired. If your controller was purchased within the last 90 days, it is covered under warranty. If outside of the warranty, you can go with our repair service.
