It seems I am doing something wrong #7

I tried to follow your description but it seems like I mixed up something. The Arduino IDE libraries for Windows are located in two places. Again, I don't understand what I'm doing wrong. I have replaced the U8G2 files in the scr folder. I have updated / downloaded the libraries you mentioned in the description. Then I realized there were two library locations so I swapped files in both folders. I guess somewhere I had to do more than I needed. I sent you the error list that the Arduino IDE generated. I'm not sure, but I think someone had a similar problem, only the conversation was conducted in German.

errors2.txt I tried again and got a similar result on a freshly installed Arduino IDE. With the procedure you recommend.

avrdude: stk500v2_receivemessage(): timeout avrdude: ser_send(): write error: sorry no info avail avrdude: stk500_send(): failed to send command to serial port avrdude: ser_recv(): read error: the handle is invalid.

I found this thread in German that I mentioned earlier. The file verification was successful, but unfortunately I got the above error at the end. I found the description of this error on Google and found out that this error has something to do with communicating with the usb port suggest connecting Arduino Mega to usb 2.0 or uninstalling the driver. I will try to solve this problem further. Unfortunately, no positive results so far.

Finally, I was able to upload the firmware. http://www.wch.cn/download/CH341SER_EXE.html This file solved my usb 3.0 communication problems on Windows 10 with the Chinese Arduino Mega board. This is much more of a complication than with the 3D printer setup, and it would seem that the device is much simpler.

Hi Goos!

sorry for my late reply... seems that we are working in different time zones ;o)

It seems, that you are linking the arduino.h. This header is a standard managing all background tasks.... and this is not compatible with the grbl. I think the SdFat brings the arduino.h back to the linker. Your errors are showing some linked files that are not included in the version I used. Please use SdFat by Bill Greiman, Version 1.2.3.

Or use this libs https://github.com/ThomasHeb/4AxisFoamCutter/tree/master/03_Firmware/libraries

Only the file u8g2_font.c is missing (path /libraries/U8g2/src/clib/), due to > 25MB.

close the Arduino IDE. save u8g2_font.c from your lib folder delete the libs in your lib folder copy the libs from the link above. add u8g2_font.c under /libraries/U8g2/src/clib/ Start Arduino IDE and compile Foamcutter.
