FT-6 firmware upload and printer setup

Jreuter 2020-01-01 22:52:44 UTC #1

Help is much needed. I have an FT-6 with the dual feed and MKS v1.4 board along with the 12864 GLCD display.
I have tried several thinks I have read about installing the firmware but it did not work.
I am using Arduino 1.8.10 and the firmware download from Folger Tech website for the FT-6 with 3 wire.
One on the error messages I get when I try to upload is "U8glib.h:no such file or directory.
Any assistance and direction would be GREAT! As this is my first dive into 3D printing. Building and wiring were fun and I new this part was going to be my greatest challenge. Thanks in advance. Jeff

You need to include the U8glib library into the sketch. It has been years since I have messed with marlin, so I don't remember exactly how to do this.

Hopefully one of the senior members will chime in with the steps on how to do this. Or you can search youtube. Sorry I can't be of more help.

Thanks I will give it a try. My computer doesn’t recognize the com port and I can’t find what the name of the MKS Gen V1.4 is. Any thanks I will continue trying. Jeff

I get this when I do what the video said to upload:
Arduino: 1.8.10 (Windows 10), Board: "Arduino Mega or Mega 2560, ATmega2560 (Mega 2560)"

cc1.exe: error: -fno-fat-lto-objects are supported only with linker plugin.

Multiple libraries were found for "U8glib.h"
Used: C:\Users\jvreuter\Documents\Arduino\libraries\U8glib
exit status 1
Error compiling for board Arduino Mega or Mega 2560.

This report would have more information with
"Show verbose output during compilation"
option enabled in File -> Preferences.

What does this mean and what do I do to fix it. Thanks for the help. Jeff
