No start signal detected- forcing start, Eeprom not accessible in RH.
I have a Prusa i3 DIY, a GT2560 board and Marlin firmware that I downloaded from Geetech's website that is setup for the board.
I have enabled eeprom in configh, but it's not showing up in RH and my printer does not move at all. When I try manual it says "# command(s) waiting"
(# being a number depending on how many times I try to move xy or z). And after a while it says in red letters "communication timed out- reset buffer block."
I'm new to 3d printing, but have learned a lot the last 2 weeks!
