RepRap Discount Full Graphic Smart Controller trying to get it to work
May 30, 2015 09:23AM
Hello all,

Here is what I have, I have a Folger Tech Prusa I3 and wanted to upgrade to a full graphics view. I watched and tried to follow both written tutorial and videos with no luck. I have installed the U8glib.

I then came across this youtube video. u8glib MOD for G LCD JHD12864F screen + RAMPS 1 4 + Arduino Mega 2560 R3 for LCD screen and kit test I followed along with it and I did get my screen to light with the graphicstest. Now when he says to declare it to get marlin to work, that is not shown. Please could someone help me with the last step? Thank you

You have to uncomment the line in Marlin's Configuration.h file for that device, as well as tell the Arduino toolkit to include u8glib. Recompile and download to your Mega, and it should work.

Its worked. I downloaded a fresh copy of marlin. I guess I had changed so many setting in my old config file that I had it all screwed up. Thank you for your response.
