This report would have more information with

option enabled in File -> Preferences.

Do not understand first line; have Melzi 2.0_V5 installed.

In the arduino tools menu you probably have the wrong 'port number' selected.
Also make sure the processor type matches the processor on your melzi board.
The first line is ok, it recognises the melzi as a arduino mega clone

dlw

'Tools' menus shows port 10. Where is the port number set in configuration h?
Also, In Pointerface, the x,y and z axis move one way but not back.
So, doesn't mean the correct port is selected?

dlw

In tools, processor is: ATmega 2560 (Mega 2560)

You can not set port. Windows decides on it. When you have a tmega with COM10 in arduino it is also COM10 in host, but you need the right baud rate from first upload as set in pronterface.

If you can not move in direction of endstops your endstop are configured wrong and trigger. See M119 output in log.

Where is this log at?
Maybe its not there since the sketch can't finish loading.

Repetier

It's in the host at the bottom. If easy mode is off you can toggle it on/off in main toolbar.

This error is when you try to upload firmware in arduino yes ?

Goto windows deice manager and select ports(com and lpt), in there it should show the port number that the arduino is connected too. set this port number in arduino tools menu,

dlw

Tools menu shows; COM10.
Device manager shows COM11.

How is it changed in Tools menu?

dlw

When you say log, do you mean 'copy error messages'.

MartinH

Should be able to click on tools/port menu and select com11(with your melzi board connected to usb)

Also afaik the melzi V2 has a atmega1284p processor, so you need to select this in the arduino tools as well.

Tools menu does not show a COM11 nor atmega1284.
Shows only COM10 and atmega1280

Please not that melzi board is a sangulino compatible board if I'm right. So it is not supported by arduino directly and you need to patch arduino IDE to support it. Read about melzi board in www.reprap.org wiki.
