Can't connect, help please
April 04, 2013 06:13PM
I built a makergear prusa mendel about 4 months ago. Was able to get as far as connecting it (to pronterface), moving the motors and as far as I know it was ready to extrude, although never went that far. Put it away, now getting back at it. Had to redownload all software due to formatting computer. When I turn the power the supply on I dont get any LEDs on the ramps. When I connect the usb I get a red light and flash of green and red twice and when I try to connect to pronterface the same leds flash again but does not connect. I can make the board blink using arduino software so I know the usb is connecting. Im getting 12 V when I check the power going into the board. Any ideas where to look next?

Is your firmware loaded onto the arduino? If you loaded blink, you replaced your firmware and it will need to be reloaded.
