Re: A30 blank screen

I had the same issue when my A30 arrived (bought used one with this particular "issue" - blank screen).

Re: Extruder Extension Board from Geeetech

William, jm1 seem to be right, the BLTouch/3DTouch needs 5 wires and I recently connected one to the connector with 5 pins with success - it is not possible to connect 3DTouch to 3-pin connector.

Re: A30 display working but no touch

I flashed only the latest firmware for display delivered with latest A30 firmware, so I think is should be working. Can you tell me what best slicer to use? When setting up Cura 4.6.1 or PrusaSlicer for this printer the print is not centered. Also I am not sure if I should configure PrusaSlicer that ...

Re: No Mainboard Firmware - Geeetech A30

I believe William has “system folder” in mind, from the official latest firmware package available for download from Geeetech website. You have to put it to the SD card and put this card into SD slot on screen mainboard.

About the flashing tool refusing to connect to mainboard: start the tool ...

Re: A30 display working but no touch

Tried that, no luck :(
I even checked the connections with multimeter, on the display sockets' pins on both sides when the cable is connected. All good.

Would it help to connect serial port adapter to one of the diagnostic pins on the display board, to check whether it sends anything when touching ...

A30 display working but no touch

Naturally the issue was that the display firmware was not updated, so I did that, manually by loading the A30_S01_V1_38.bin and system folder to the display's SD card, rebooted printer and it woke up, it goes through boot (logo and ...
