mks tft lcd free sample

If you want to change some function or add new function and so on, you can refer to MKS TFT source code and build it, update it to MKS TFT, Link as below:

Hi The Marlin firmware for the MKS-TFT32 on a MKS Gen v1.4 board will not compile. Can you please check your file and post the correct working version

What are the changes in the configuration for the the MKS-TFT32 display? I am using the latest version of Marlin 1.1 RC8 and I want to keep using that version.

Same here. I got sent v1.3 of the tft28 display. I turned it on without the sd card and it says “printready” with a bunch of blank icons. I am doing everything right. The SD card is set to fat32 with the 3 files in place. I have tried firmware 1.1.5 and 1.2. Both firmwares will update, but right after, it just says “spi loader PID Erasing”

I just wanted to add that I was having this issue and following this step solved it, at least for me. I had tried to update the MKS-TFT28 firmware before installing Marlin, and that’s when the odd images showed. I installed Marlin and then reinstalled the MKS-TFT28 firmware and all is back to normal.

Hello, i’m using TFT28 on RAMPS 1.4 , is there any way to make it work when i print from computer ? to display temperatures and other info like 12864 graphic LCD does ?

but if i print from COMPUTER through USB the TFT28 remain in main screen, does not show temperatures , fan speed or progress of printing like other lcd displays.

Hi I got the mks 1.5 board and the touch screen 3.2. Evey thing seems to work, till i go to print from the usb. Then the printer just sits there. I can move all axis I can pre heat and home all axis. and i can print from computer but stand alone cant print. Any ideals whats wrong

I have a MK Gen board, a TFT28 and a WIFI module. When the wifi module is plugged into the TFT28 and power is applied to the Gen board nothing happens. Without the wifi the Gen and the TFT power up no problem. Is this a firmware problem? Or a power problem. Right now I am on the bench using USB cable to power everything.

Hello. I purchased MKS SBASE V1.3 + MKS TFT32 3.2” LCD Touch Display. Please help me to connect the display to the base. Menu is working, but info from the base not receive.

I have the MKS SBASE V1.3 & MKS TFT32 3.2″.After updating the firmware I noticed there no long has the ‘Set>Connect’ icon. How do I change the baud rate now? Or even see what it is set to.

Today I got a MKS TFT 3.2 in a bundle with a MKS sbase. I connected it with the AUX1 ports on both devices and plugged the board into an USB port. The board seems to work, but the TFT is just dead. On pictures in the internet I can see that there should at least light up a LED on the backside, but there is nothing.

I just noticed that the TFT gets its 5V not from the USB but from the 12V that I had not connected to this time. I had the impression from some picture in the internet that the display would work with just USB power from the board too. Now with 12V attached it works.

I would like to use a sketch of Marklin from another source. What is different about your version? Can you provide the code and where it goes so I can put it into another version? I am using the tft 3.2 controller. Many thanks!

Hi my TFT32 dose not seem to communicate with my mks sbase 1.3 connections are all OK firmware is updated to v2. however when you press on any of the icons nothing happens any ideas

I just assumed it was an upgraded version, but now I’m reading that they are completely different boards. I ordered the SBASE because I wanted to run smoothieware. Am I correct to assume that I can not install smoothieware on the MKS BASE v1.5?

Hi, please follow the instruction for MKS BASE V1.5 board to install firmware: https://osoyoo.com/2016/06/30/mks-1-4-3d-printer-board-marlin-firmware-installation-guide/

Elaine, I should clarify that I ordered the SBASE v1.3 from a seller on Amazon 4 months ago, but received the wrong board. I haven’t had a chance to start setting it up until now. Is it still true that the 32TFT in not compatible with RAMPS 1.4? If it’s not compatible with RAMPS 1.4, then can I install Smoothieware on the BASE v1.5, or can you tell me what my other options are?

My new mks tft32 touch screen is only showing one extruder.I have a tevo tarantula with dual extruders.Is there any way to show both extruders on the screen please?

Is the source code of the TFT32 available somewhere? Because most of the current menus are useless to me and I need to reconfigure my TFT32 to more useful functions for my CNC.

Hi. I just got a new FLSun Cube printer with the TFT32 screen and the mks gen l v1.0 main board. When I changed the custom loading graphic from the standard RepRap logo to my own graphic following the instructions in the guide, I get an FLSun logo overlayed in the middle of my graphic. Where is this logo coming from?

I purchased 2 of these. One to use on a Smoothieware board and the other to use on a Rambo 1.1 printer. I didn’t realize this had different connectors than those on the Rambo. Is there an adapter which will permit me to use the KINGPRINT 3D Printer Controller Board MKS TFT32 with a Rambo 1.1 board?

Many times to make any user interface or nicely display content, we use icons/images. In this Instructable, you will be displaying icons or logos or images on your TFT screen from Arduino with using ATmega (microcontroller used in Arduino) Flash memory. It does not require any SD Card to store bitmap images or USB connection to send image data. We will convert images from any image format like .bmp, .jpg, .jpeg, .png to its hexadecimal equivalent to be stored in flash memory of arduino mega (ATmega2560).

Colored icons/images: It depends on the TFT screen used, for eg. 1.8" SPI TFT with ST7735 driver has 16bit color. Images or icons will just look like your phone screen, but it takes lots of space. it takes 16bits (2bytes) for each pixel (16times more!!).

It requires a TFT screen compatible with arduino, few jumper cables (dupont wires), breadboard and is recommended to use 3.3V -5V level shifters (but it works without it also :P ). But we have used evive . It has all the things required to do this without any additional wiring!! Hence it helps in avoiding the repetitive task for bread-boarding. evive uses the most commonly used 1.8" SPI based TFT (ST7735R driver) having 160px by 128px along with Arduino Mega 2560 R3. Also has internal logic level shifters for ideal usage.

https://sourceforge.net/projects/lcd-image-convert...This tool has all the options for large varieties of screens available. You can even draw your own icon!!.

Using the LCD_Image_Converter tool, we will get the image in hexadecimal form.Load the image usign File->Open->"SelectUrImage" If you want to edit image, use the editing tools.

Other option is to go for colored images (remember that it takes lot of Arduino Flash memory). Based on the TFT screen you will have to select some options like color format (1.8" SPI TFT SR7735R uses 16 bit colors: R5G6B5)Load the image usign File->Open->"SelectUrImage" If you want to edit image, use the editing tools.

The Fabrikator Mini was sort of a lark. It as getting great reviews on YouTube, and constantly backordered. It was supposed to be my first printer. But then I got the deal on the MPMS. So of course, 2 weeks later, the FabMini comes back in stock in 1 color (Green- my fave!), and on sale. So I decided to grab it while I could. It"s obviously not very versatile or practical, but it has printed parts for my FT-5 build, and I just made $50 printing commercially unavailable replacement parts for a Viking range for the service tech who fixed my fridge. Who says he"ll probably order that tiny part in batches of 6-10 if the test piece works out well. That printer may suddenly pay for itself! I also did Chuck Helleybuck"s LCD+SD reader upgrade on it, which made it far more convenient. I hate tethered printing.
