- | - Start the Arduino IDE (arduino.exe) | + | |
- | - Set the board type correctly in Tools->Board: | + | |
- | - For X3: Select Arduino AT Mega 2560 or Mega ADK | + | |
- | - For X1: Select Arduino Mega (ATmega1280) | + | |
- | - Set the serial port correctly in Tools->Serial Port. | + | |
- | - Open Marlin.ino from your Bukobot firmware directory (File->Open). | + | |
