CR-X Screen Adapter Plate for Anet A6 Display
Description
UPDATE: Added Version 2 to allow for easier mounting using the speaker screws. and drilling 2 additional holes on the opposite side. These use m3 screws. You can also use the included spacers as washers for the spearer mounts. Overall a major improvement! This is an adapter plate I made for my Creality CR-X. This allows you to use an Anet A6 screen which is just a 12864 LCD. This is linked below. The reason I did this was to be able to upgrade to Marlin 2.0 without dealing with the touchscreen firmware. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B078Y647LT/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Here is how to connect the screen to a Ramps board: NOTE: the RED ribbon is the 1 pin on the cable Below is the layout for the plug socket connector, as if you were looking at the plug socket pins, where the first number indicates the LCD pinout number e.g. 1 is the first pin etc (plus they are all in the correct respective positions of the connector), which is followed by the RAMPS pin number in brackets e.g. (D16) (D17) etc you need to connect it to (see the RAMPS schematic above for the pin layout). I've also added the functions of all 10 socket pins, which may be useful to know. LCD connector: 1 (GND) Ground --------------------2 (5V) +5V 3 (D16) LCD_PINS_RS -----------4 (D33) BTN_EN2 5 (D17) LCD_PINS_ENABLE ----6 (D31) BTN_EN1 7 N/C ----------------------------------8 (D35) BTN_ENC 9 (D23) LCD_PINS_D4 -----------10 (D37) BEEPER_PIN The J3 connector doesn't actually do much as most of it's functions are for a part which isn't included on the A6 LCD board (either an SD card reader or a bluetooth module I'm not sure). It only really connects the reset button and I don't even think the 5V and GND connections are required for this plug but I connected them up anyway. J3 connector: 1 N/C ----------------2 N/C 3 N/C ----------------4 (5V) +5V 5 N/C ----------------6 N/C 7 (D41) RESET ---8 (GND) Ground 9 N/C ---------------10 N/C
