EEPROM version mismatch

I just loaded the community firmware (Marlin 1.8C) onto a newly purchased MKS Gen L board. Everything builds and loads fine, but upon boot if I look at the Serial output I see a few concerning messages:

echo:EEPROM version mismatch (EEPROM=? Marlin=V47)
echo:Hardcoded Default Settings Loaded
echo:SD init fail

Any pointers one what might be wrong? TIA.

    Yep, just need do step 17 in the firmware upgrade instructions on the wiki (jgaurorawiki.com/A5/firmware), that’s all you’re missing.

    Thanks Samuel, I actually executed that step though I did not get any feedback from the commands. That is, I typed M502<enter>, and got no feedback in the serial window. I typed M500<enter> and also got no feedback. Upon reboot I was still getting the version mismatch. I'll try again to make sure there wasn't some pilot error.

    Just check that the line ending is set correctly if you are using the arduino IDE. I recommend using pronterface for that step.

    Ugh. Sorry to have bothered you, I just changed the line ending and found that it worked right as your comment came in. It's working now. BTW, I attached a WiFi module to the LCD. It is recognized and connects to my network. I haven't tried using it yet.

    Thanks for your help.
