Hi this is my first post on here I wish it was a positive one...
So I have made a Prusa I3 variation Running a mega 2560 with Ramps 1.4 , The latest version of Marlin, I am using pronter face (latest version) and Repetier (latest version)
I was up to the arranging my endstops to enable the printer to zero home.
The Problem I have encountered is as such:
I attached the X endstop - 2 pinned microlever switched using the 1st and 3rd pin on the micro and using appropriate pins on ramps. tested it all fine when depressed a green led indicator flashed on and when it remained depresseed it flashed more than once...
I then plugged in the y and z onto ramps, the arduino stops communicating with my pc and get the folllowing message.
"Could not connect to COM3 at baudrate 250000:
Serial error: could not open port COM3: [Error 2] The system cannot find the file specified."
I have tried normal trouble shooting, I have removed the 2 plugs as it had previously connectted. it then connected again, then when i retried the y and z it disconnected again. when i tried to remove them and go with just the x plug it no longer connects at all...
I think this is a pc issue but I am a bit lost at the moment, and would appreciate any help from people who know a lot more than me lol.
I have attached my error log from pronter face
sorry if this is a repost.
Thanks
