How to update the display

Miguel Risco-Castillo edited this page May 27, 2023 · 41 revisions

Some features, such as G-code preview, need updated firmware to work on some DACAI and TJC displays. Custom icon assets such as Giadej icon set are only supported by DWIN and DACAI displays.

If you have the stock icons and display assets, you do not need to update the display to use this firmware. Creality currently provides several types of display units with its Ender-3 V2/S1 printers:

DWIN display
Ender3v2-DWIN

DACAI display has a Updated firmware to enable G-code preview
Ender3S1-DACAI

SYNWIT (VIEWE) display, some users report problems with this screen.

TJC display, currently this display needs a custom compile to show leveling numeric data in the mesh viewer and some displays need updated firmware to enable G-code preview, more info: TJC issues.
