However, it may be easier to grab them from our direct link for [https://www.dropbox.com/sh/t8ib9fvq9oihl53/AADgI80FQpTG5JTGPLD2qvTXa Arduino Version 22 and 23], or [https://www.dropbox.com/sh/zjqn1c3d7cpr4bt/AACMYM4CkJWBjieU_x8j7-xSa Arduino version 1.x.x].

+The LiquidTWI2 library also needs to be installed in the libraries directory for the Viki LCD portion of the firmware to compile.  This library is located at [https://github.com/lincomatic Lincomatic's Github repo] at: https://github.com/lincomatic/LiquidTWI2/archive/master.zip
-"Configuring and compilation:
-Install the arduino software IDE/toolset v23 (Some configurations also work with 1.x.x) http://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Software
-Start the arduino IDE. Select Tools -> Board -> Arduino Mega 2560 or your microcontroller Select the correct serial port in Tools ->Serial Port Open Marlin.pde
+Once your library locations are set up properly, the instructions for installing Marlin from https://github.com/ErikZalm/Marlin are as follows:<br>

 We recommend using [http://arduino.cc/en/Main/OldSoftwareReleases Arduino IDE version 23] to load the firmware into gigabot's brain (aka azteeg controller board).

-=== Motor Driver Voltage ===
+By measuring the Vref voltage in the motor drivers of the Azteeg X3, you can find and adjust the corresponding current limit for each driver.
 *X motor driver - 0.84 volts
 *Y motor driver - 1.2 volts
 *Z motor driver - 1.0 volts
 *Ext motor driver - 0.84 volts
