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?

Robin series motherboards adopt 32-bit ARM chips, support TFT touch screens of various sizes (2.4 / 2.8 / 3.2 / 3.5 / 4.3).Can achieve a variety of functions, such as breakpoint recovery, filament detection, Auto-off function, wifi transmission and other functions. The hardware has been open sourced, supporting makerbase’s independently developed firmware and marlin 2.0 open source firmware. Based on customer needs. Innovate our products.

Compared with FDM technology, LCD SLA technology is favored by the market due to an order of magnitude improvement in accuracy, but the market coverage rate is far inferior to FDM technology. Of course, there are various factors such as high cost, few solutions, and consumable limitations. To this end, MKS independently developed the MKS DLP motherboard and its supporting software to advance the development of LCD SLA 3D printing in terms of cost and solution.
