How to update the display
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 icon set, in principle you do not need to update the display to use this firmware, only some TJC display units need a firmware update to boot properly. Creality currently provides several types of display units with its Ender-3 V2/S1/Neo printers:
DWIN display, the original display unit, it supports all firmware functions.
DACAI display, some versions need updated firmware to enable G-code preview
SYNWIT (VIEWE) display, initially unsupported due to incompatibilities with QR-codes (removed in latest firmware version) some users report problems with this screen, but now seems that it is working without issues.
TJC display, currently this display needs a special compile to show numeric data in the tramming wizard and in the mesh viewer, some displays need updated firmware to enable G-code preview and boot properly,
more info: TJC issues.
The DWIN_SET
display firmware / icon assets only apply to the DWIN display, for the DACAI screens, you should use the private
display firmware / icon assets.
The display assets compilations in this page are compatible with Professional firmware. Each firmware can have its own compatible icon set.
- Get an µSD card of 8GB or less.
- Format the µSD card MBR, FAT32 and with a 4 KB sector size
- Copy the
DWIN_SET
(DWIN),private
(DACAI) orTJC_SET
(TJC) folder in the Root of SD - Turn off your printer
- Disconnect and disassembly the screen unit
- Install the µSD card into the slot of the screen unit
- Reconnect the screen to the printer
- Turn on the printer and wait for the display to change color from blue to orange
- Verify that the screen assets were updated
- Turn off the printer and remove the µSD card from the screen unit
- Reassembly the screen unit
If you weren't able to update the display, verify the format of the µSD Card (MBR, FAT32 and allocation unit of 4096 bytes) and the CRC of the files.
Be sure to leave only the DWIN_SET
or private
folder at the root of the card.
In order to use all the features of this firmware with DACAI screens it has to be updated.
If you can't see preview images with this g-code test file update your DACAI screen firmware.
