Hi to everyone, I've built a Prusa Mendel and with help from a friend managed to download the required Soft/Firmware and upload to the Arduino mega 2560 R3 board with Ramps 1.4, I been merrily printing away until recently. I wanted to make some alterations to the calibration but when it came to uploading I got an error compiling message reading. In file included from /Marlin.h:22, from BlinkM.cpp:5: /Configuration.h:664:2: error: #endif without #if Are there any experienced users that could point me in the right direction to correct the problem. Thanks in advance.

I'm running two machines with one laptop (not at the same time) and didn't realize I had to select the the correct port in Arduino IDE, all sorted now and a good lesson learned.

I know very little about the more technical side of computers but very willing to learn, I am in the Autumn of life, been retired for ten years, and just love building and playing with this new technology. I'm now setting up the Repetier firmware for the CNC Router I've just completed, stand by for more questions.

One again Thank You All.

make sure your board type in Arduino IDE is set to your real board type... and mega 1280 is not the same as a mega 2560 for eg

Its rare for a mega 2560 not to upload, unless the bootloader in the 2560 has been changed/corrupted... and you need a ISP to re upload that]]> Dust General Tue, 07 Oct 2014 01:14:20 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,414312,416281#msg-416281 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,414312,416281#msg-416281 or post your Configuration.h file for others to view.
It is easier to start again. as you may have made a mistake somewhere.

Dont forget to unplug mega2560 and ramps from power.
dont forget to choose the board you are working with in the IDE settings]]> pushthatbolder General Mon, 06 Oct 2014 21:07:17 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,414312,416242#msg-416242 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,414312,416242#msg-416242

I'm now getting,

Any ideas?
