no heartbeat
I have a brand new board, Acorn 9075. Everything comes on, except the heartbeat. I cannot run a report so this is all I have. Any suggestions?

Re: no heartbeat
Here are a couple forum posts which will explain a little bit what you're seeing and maybe how to deal with it.

Re: no heartbeat
I pulled the SEED board from the new Acorn and swapped it out with one from an older board that was laying around. That fixed the problem. So is the SEED BOARD BAD?

Re: no heartbeat
That would be the "Beagle Bone Green" or BBG that you're referring to.
In the first thread posted above, written by Marty, he explains the procedure to check if the Acorn/BBG are working or not and what to do based on the LEDs that you see on.
Posting some pictures of what the Acorn looks like when it's powered up would be helpful.
