When flashing the 2560 is a power supply needed or is the usb power sufficient?
I notice in the kit there is just the 12v supply for the Ramps board. nothing for the mega. So i assume no power supply is needed.
This is my first time and it took 2 full months to get this board so I do not want to smoke it.
Usb is all you need. The 12v from the kit plugs into the ramps shield and powers the mega from the green plug.
Perfect thanks. Cant wait to get this moving!
Removed… I got it programmed. I think.
Hi peeps I have got to flash ramps but every time I try to upload files I get a error. Arduino: 1.6.10 (Windows 10), Board: “Arduino/Genuino Mega or Mega 2560, ATmega1280”

Paz help
Try using the arduino classic or older versions of arduino. Both Marlin and arduino have been updated and they have moved the library files, this is causing most peoples issues.
I have the new firmware ready but have not tested it enough to release it yet. I might just have to put it out there because of this. Let me know if the older version or arduino doesn’t help.
