reprap lcd screen free sample

Depending on the vendor you may find boards using an ST7920 IC Driver or a ST7565 IC Driver. Boards using a DOG-M128 Display use a ST7565 IC Driver. The more common and generic boards use some flavor of a 12864 LCD with the ST7920, this is the case with most board you find in online stores.

This display board is supported by the most popular 3D Printer firmwares, yet differences in the LCD Drivers used and others may dictate the level of support in a given 3D printer mainboard and firmware combination. See connection for more details.

The basic requirement to add support in the Marlin Firmware is to enable the REPRAP_DISCOUNT_FULL_GRAPHIC_SMART_CONTROLLER in the "Configuration.h”. For more details check Marlin"s page on how to configure the firmware, see the LCD section.

The firmware also offers other define constants for some popular variants of the "RepRapDiscount Full Graphic Smart Controller", that may use another driver or has a different PIN/layout or other requirement. Look at options under the the "LCD / Controller Selection" sections in the "Configuration.h” file.

To enable the correct LCD in the firmware it is important that you identify if your version of a "Smart Controller" is indeed using the ST7920 driver or if it has a different pin requirement. If that is your situation, then you need to see if the firmware already has support for your version of "Smart Controller" and select it accordingly.

Another important aspect of compatibility is dictated by your printers mainboard it self. If you board has a dedicated LCD connector you have to check at minimum two things:

For example a connection that shares the SPI with the an ST7920 LCD will not work and will produce garbage on the LCD. (The ST7920 can not share an SPI/Serial interface).

As I wanted to fit my LCD to a space where there is not the full width of rail available I have added two connecting bars to link the LCD to the brackets which can now be closer together.

A remix of two brackets one originally for the lcd smart controller and one designed for the full graphics controller but which originally had screw fixings for mounting to a desk corner.

Downloaded the latest 1.1.9 bugfix since the my last 1.1.8 bugfix release and developed an issue that has been an annoyance for me and I"m sure for some with Reprap Discount Full Graphics Smart Controller Display coming up garbled after flashing firmware. My LCD is the red version (12864) of the Reprap boards.

"Remix from @Bilgaard mount so this accomodates a Repraps 12864 LCD on theEnder 5plus. Mount fits the LCD perfectly with a small opening to get to a reset button if needed.

Ender 5plus lcd is closed code and doesn"t allow some upgrade boards. My main reason for changing was that the original LCD does not support marlin "Advanced_Pause_Options" which stops you 2 color printing on ender 5 plus with the cura "Change Filament" option.

If you build up a 3d printer from scratch, you must install a firmware on the controller board. This article descripes the steps when you install the Marlin firmware on a RepRap controller using the combination of an Arduino Mega 2560 and the RAMPS 1.4 shield.

If you have a RepRapDiscount Smart Controller (40x2 character display), uncoment the entry in line 1770: //=============================================================================

After successful compiling and transmission of the firmware the board will make a reset and the display should show the basic screen of the Marlin firmware. The next picture shows the screen in case of the full graphic lcd.

First created in 2011 for RepRap and Ultimaker by Erik van der Zalm et. al., today Marlin drives most of the world"s 3D printers. Reliable and precise, Marlin delivers outstanding print quality while keeping you in full control of the process.
