  • The BigtreeTech touchscreens can work out of the box with BTT boards. In this video, I will walk you through updating the screen firmware for the BigtreeTech TFT35 v3 (amzn.to/3K4MTIx). The same steps should work for the following screens:
    BTT TFT
    - BTT_TFT24_V1.1
    - BTT_TFT28_V1.0 and V3.0
    - BTT_TFT35_V1.0, V1.1, V1.2, V2.0, V3.0, E3_V3.0 and B1_V3.0
    - BTT_TFT43_V3.0
    - BTT_TFT50_V3.0
    - BTT_TFT70_V3.0
    BTT GD TFT
    - BTT_GD_TFT24_V1.1
    - BTT_GD_TFT35_V2.0, V3.0, E3_V3.0 and B1_V3.0
    - BTT_GD_TFT43_V3.0
    - BTT_GD_TFT50_V3.0
    - BTT_GD_TFT70_V3.0
    MKS TFT
    - MKS_TFT28_V3.0 and V4.0
    - MKS_TFT32_V1.3 and V1.4
    - MKS_TFT35_V1_0

    Thank you so much for the straightforward tutorial! I ran into a little issue (found outdated data: fonts, config, language, icons) but I think I'll work it out.

    Excellent video! It has really answered many questions for me. I am however having an issue where in Marlin mode I can adjust temperatures for each hotend. While i touch mode I can only see one hotend (i have a dual extrusion machine). In touch mode I can only toggle between bed and T0...... Do you maybe seen this before or am I just missing how you do change between hotends in touch mode?

    • @minimal3dp
      @minimal3dp  Před rokem

      I have not seen it before but take a look at the BTT screen config files. It is part of the files you put on the SD card and flash. Take a look at the options. It might be a setting in there.

    Thank you for posting this video. What screen should I get for my Ender 3 V2 with Sprite pro Extruder to replace its stock screen? Is there one that fits its casing or is it something I would need get and print a casing for. All videos I see are for replacing standard Ender 3 or in this case a Ender 5.

    • @minimal3dp
      @minimal3dp  Před rokem

      I have used the BTT TFT 3.5 v3 on several printers. I think it depends on your budget.

    Was hoping to customize this firmware for a laser frame, so that it streams the grbl gcode to the stm32 controller over the tx/Rx four wire connection. Can you help with this?

    Great video. Finally did an update to my TFT35 after owning it for 4yrs. I do have a question. I'm looking to remove the (un)load/load button & replace it back with the extrude button. I prefer the manual 1mm/5mm/10mm extrusions instead of the (un)load/load. Would that be a Marlin code? Or in the config.ini? Been searching through it & haven't found anything yet. I've disabled all M600 features already.

    • @minimal3dp
      @minimal3dp  Před 5 měsíci

      You might be able to do it in the config.ini but I am not sure. Although I have not used them, have you looked at marlin macros?

    I give up, I've tried everything and it doesn't work and there's no help on the internet anywhere
    I read everything from the video and all the articles, but there is no solution
    I have TFT50 V3.0 (V27 softwave)
    everything works fine and is connected to btt skr 1.2 pro (no software inside yet)
    but as soon as I insert the config.ini into the TFT50, it updates and turns on, then beeps continuously for a few seconds and restarts in 30 seconds, and so on and on without interruption until I turn it off
    Can anyone help, I really don't know if I'm doing something wrong

    Great tutorial, But i will spill some advise here, If you have a Ender 5 Plus, Dont try putting these MiniE3v3 and screens and boards in unless you know everything. I gave up after hundreds of attempts, proper depressed me, Then i gave it to a shop, Proper depressed them too, Three trained technicians and 6 weeks later. It worked ok for around a week, maybe ten prints and now its a nightmare again. Im binning the MiniE3v3 board and fitting Duet3d instead.
