Check the power cable. Plugged in firmly? I’ve had mine come out.

If you push the manual buttons on front do they move the Dos heads?

Did you buy used or new? Only reason I ask is because the ddr(container) have been notorious for going bad. I had the same issue until I unplugged the ddr and everything was working fine

What Cable are you using. Did you try a different USB Cable to see if that was the issue?

Are you using a USB connection or a 1Link cable? I've had issues with USB cables lately. Definitely try a different cable.

Update with a solution. Talked to Supportteam and was asking the same. Changed the cable and now it all works. didn't think of a failure cable with a new item.

Thanks for all you help, and a awesome supportteam at neptune
