Anyone interested in an LCD control panel for the Ormerod?

I am trying to get the txt but the seller seems not visible from the Belgian eBay.

I can't find that seller on ebay.be either. I suggest you try ebay.com. This display [www.ebay.com] looks identical to the one I am using. This one [www.ebay.com] too.

What happens when you try to buy one from ebay,com? Here in the UK it appears that I can buy from ebay,com.

Normally I can see the same sellers independently from it being eBay.be or eBay.co.uk or else, but not this one.

My guess is that the seller has opted not to translate that page to French or Flemish. What is stopping you from buying it from ebay.com?

I tried, but my account is locked to eBay.be and it reverts automatically. I see there are many that look similar thought.

Any of these would work also?

At first glance, the first one of those looks suitable. The second appears to have different pin connections, unless that is a misprint. The third is a much larger display. This one [www.benl.ebay.be] also looks suitable. All of these cost a lot more than the displays shipped from China or Hong Kong that can be found on ebay.co.uk and ebay.com.

The essential features of the display are:

* 4.3 inch 480x272 pixel display
* On-board SSD1963 controller
* On-board XPT2046 or ADS7843 or compatible touch controller
* 16-bit parallel interface
* 40-pin 2 row 2.54mm (0.1 inch) pitch connector with pinout similar to this [wiki.iteadstudio.com] or this [wiki.iteadstudio.com] (only difference is LED anode connection)
* 3.3V or 5V power requirement (this is selectable via a jumper on the controller board)

Boards that appear to be compatible include:

1. [imall.iteadstudio.com] (tested and working)
2. [www.ebay.co.uk] (earlier version of board tested and working with caveat)
3. [www.ebay.co.uk] (not tested)
4. [www.ebay.co.uk] (not tested)
5. [www.sainsmart.com] (not tested)

I have not tested numbers 3, 4 and 5 but to me they look identical to #2. The caveat on #2 is that the backlight current consumption during power up is higher than the prototype controller boards allow for, and this sometimes causes the voltage regulator to oscillate. I have delayed production of controller boards for 2 days to allow me to try a different voltage regulator with a higher current capacity.

Boards with a 24-bit parallel RGB interface are not suitable.

The firmware also currently supports 3.2 inch widescreen 400x240 displays with HX8352A controller; however I recommend using a 4.3 inch display because it is much nicer to use. The firmware does not support the widely-available 3.2 inch 320x240 displays, because although that would be possible, the amount of information that can be displayed would be less. The firmware also works on 5 inch 800x480 displays using the SSD1963 controller and with the same 40-pin connector, although it does not currently make proper use of the larger display or higher resolution.

Thanks!

PS - although the first of the displays you linked to looked suitable at first glance, I am no longer sure. In particular, the connector pads on the left hand side don't have pins soldered into them, and may not have the correct pinout. This one [www.benl.ebay.be] looks a better option. Or try Amazon. Or work out how to order for ebay.com, e.g. delete cookies and use a new email address.

I think you gave me enough choices. I could even just take the one you suggested initially as prices seem all rather higher once your alternative is no longer an option.

i bought this one:

[www.ebay.de]

i hope this one is alright

It looks similar to the board I have, although the PCB layout is a little different. The pinout is the same, which is a good sign.

Hey!

I was wondering if you were selling this wonderful solution? I see that you have made quite some progress on the prototyping, but I don't know if the real product is already finished...

Do you know if this would also work on a RAMPS 1.4 - Marlin custom 3D Printer? I would like to integrate it into my own custom built printer...

Anyway, it looks like great work!

Yes, it is in production and called the PanelDue. See this thread [forums.reprap.org].

To use it with RAMPS/Marlin, you would need to identify a spare serial port on the Arduino to connect it to. You would also need to modify Marlin to accept commands from that port and to support the extension to the M105 command and the M36 command.

Or you could consider replacing the 8-bit RAMPS by a 32-bit Duet

excuse me.
be very difficult to program this type of LCD graphic touch on cards 8 / 32bit?

Thanks! It looks like a fantastic addition to my delta printer. However, I'll first try and install a "standard" LCD screen. Once I get a bit more familiar with the delta tech, I will definitely consider your product!

For now I stay with RAMPS as that's the one I am most familiar with :-)

I assume with the extension of the M105 and M36 command, you mean adding the JSON functionality?

The M105 command has the support for S2 and S3 parameters added (which return data in JSON format). The M36 command is completely new.

Are you asking about using PanelDue with different printer electronics, or are you asking about using a different type of graphics display?

make a disposition of the items in the display as in video
good are you in doing this???

are interested in the PanelDue
but with a different arrangement in the display menu.
you be able to program so

The PanelDue firmware is open source (see [github.com]), so if you are able to write firmware, you can program the menus however you like.
