Awesome I can use the screen out of my scrap pile rather than buy a new one. Many thanks.

i have been wondering for quite a while but what can you do with exp 1, 2 on the lcd and exp 2 on the board ?

Was wondering if the octopus pro 1.0 429chip board will work with an ender 3 v2 screen? Keep getting an encoder error compiling marlin. Thanks it’s different than the screen your using in video. It’s 32 bit screen and larger in a full case. I’d buy you one and have it shipped to you or donate $ for you to purchase if you do a tutorial on setup

Does anyone konw of a case to slot underneath the ender 3 pro

I'm trying to connect a Fystec MINI12864 v 1.2 to an SKR 1.3. If I plug EXP 1 and two Flipped, can I burn something out? I read the Fystec may have the pins rotated? I'm working on my first Klipper install. Thanks.

Hey Ed, how would the Ender 3 v2 display fair on the Octopus Pro board?

I assume the EXP pinouts would be different, right?

Does the Pro fits on the ender board compartment or do you have to run it on the outside ?
