MKS TFT35 on RADDS 1.5?
March 26, 2021 05:35AM
Hello everybody
I'm planning to move from MarlinKimbra MK4DUO to Marlin 2 on my printer (RADDS 1.5)
On MK I used a Nextion 4.3 touch display that is connected to AUX1

Do you think it's possible to use MKS TFT35 in a similar way with Marlin 2.x?
If I understand correctly MKS TFT35 uses a serial comunication as Nextion do.

Do you know if there is a Nextion interface to be used with marlin?
Thanks

But now a display layout must be created with nextion editor.
I guess the one used for Mk4duo don't work, right?

Thanks!

Just another doubt..
I read around that these tft displays connected to serial could conflict with octoprint on usb.
Do you think that this could be a problem with radds?
I guess not because nextion was connected too on serial and didn't make any issue
