What happened?
Newly purchased 6x Axis Controller usb connection does not working at all. First I connected to 24V power supply then I plugged usb to the pc. It was kind of weird. Then it lost the connection in a couple of minutes. My voltage and everything is stable. Still it has 5V led light on. It seems normal but I changed the cable, I tried with a different computer nothing. It looks like usb chip is dead. Also I checked there is no any hotspot wifi.

What do you mean by this? What was wierd?
First I connected to 24V power supply then I plugged usb to the pc. It was kind of weird.
How were you connected, through what?
Then it lost the connection in a couple of minutes.
Which cable?
It seems normal but I changed the cable
What makes you think that?
It looks like usb chip is dead.
One step at a time, make sure you have a stable USB connection first.
Also I checked there is no any hotspot wifi.
Did you install the USB-drivers for the board?
-
The pc didnt load the drivers automatically. It had an exclamation mark on it.

Usb was connected to the pc sir. So basically the USB cable was connected to the controller and the computer.
-
After the pc didn't see the controller from device manager, I tried another USB cable. Later I tried 4 different cables and a different pc.

I think my USB cables are in good condition. The reason I said usb chip is bc there is no connection with the pc. I hold the reset button didn't observe any changes, I hold the boot button again no difference.
I also apologise for my poor explanation. I am a mechanical engineer who is trying to learn more electronic side recently. Thanks for assistance
Try installing the CP210x drivers from https://www.silabs.com/developer-tools/usb-to-uart-bridge-vcp-drivers?tab=downloads
You need main power. Be careful with the polarity
The drivers installed. I used https://us.openbuilds.com/24v-meanwell-power-supply-bundle/ as ps. It only gives power to the controller. I can see 5V light as usual. I cant see any connection to the computer. I have a multimeter. I can check some voltage on the board with your guidelines. Thanks

You can contact them for a replacement.
You might try a different PC as a last check. All boards are tested and programmed at the factory via the USB.
