Creality Ender-4 Upgrade to 12864 Graphic Display

myminifactory

A dated Ender-4 display based on a text 2004 screen resembles a relic from the last century. The solution is simple: upgrade to a 12864 Graphic display. The 30* display holders are identical to those described in https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-91418. A straightforward front panel print with no supports required. For both connectors on flat cables, flip them 180 degrees to ensure the display functions properly. Remove lock tabs (file them out) from EXP1 and EXP2 connectors so you can place them reversed in the display board's connectors, as shown in RE pictures. Modifications to Marlin include: Commenting out the old 2004 Controller: // #define REPRAP_DISCOUNT_SMART_CONTROLLER Defining a new 12864 Graphic Controller: #define REPRAP_DISCOUNT_FULL_GRAPHIC_SMART_CONTROLLER Defining reverse encoder direction: #define REVERSE_ENCODER_DIRECTION Budget breakdown: 1 x 12864 Graphic Display Module: http://got.by/3d1exe (~$10 USD) 1 x Display Front Panel: print face down, no supports required 4 x Display Spacers (red in pictures): spacers of various heights are available, depending on display module assembly 2 x Bottom Holder, 1 x Top Corner Holder - refer to my recent post https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-91418
