Hi All,

I have a Creality 4.2.7 board here I am planning on using and also have a Ramps 1.4 complete kit. Was going to try and use the RAMPS LCD board on the creality. Will this work?

Not easily

the ramps 128x64 lcd requires 2 * 10 pin connectors the creality 4.2.7 only has 1 10 pin connector

the 4.2.7 is designed for creality displays. the color tft with encoder, the colour tft with touch. (both are serial devices) and the CR10_STOCKDISPLAY, which uses 1 10pin and doesnt have a sd on the display

You would need to make up a custom cable to emulate a CR10_STOCKDISPLAY

Thanks for that.

Just trying to decide if I should use this 4.2.7 board or not now. I have a complete ramps 1.4 with mega, drivers, screen etc here to use.

But in saying that I also have an ender3 here which I never use the screen for as I run it through ocotopi so a LCD really serves no purpose
