The 3D printer 128×64 Smart LCD controller for ramps 1.4 contains an SD-Card reader, a rotary encoder and a 128×64 LCD display. You can easily connect it to your RAMPS board using the “smart adapter”.
After connecting this panel to your Ramps you don’t need your pc anymore, the Smart Controller supplies power for your SD card. Furthermore, all actions like calibration, axes movements can be done by just using the rotary encoder on the Smart Controller. Print your 3D designs without PC, just with a g-code design stored on the SD card.
Compares to the 2004 Smart LCD Controller With Adapter, this 128×64 screen can display much more information, which would help for you run the 3D printer without a computer.
Marlin V1 (new)
We have provided the Arduino Code to Start smart LCD with RAMPS. You have to open the “Arduino code pdf “(Which is Provided below the ATTACHMENTS tab ) and go to “Configuration.h” and change as
Installation: In “Configuration.h”
Change “#define REPRAP_DISCOUNT_FULL_GRAPHIC_SMART_CONTROLLER” (just remove the // at the beginning)
Upload the code, power off the Arduino, connect the panel, reapply power, and everything should work.
or
Step 1: Download and install U8glib to your ARDUINO IDE’s library folder
Step 2: Edit Configuration.h in Marlin firmware, Search and Uncomment (just remove the // at the beginning)
#define REPRAP_DISCOUNT_FULL_GRAPHIC_SMART_CONTROLLER
Step 3: Then Compile and Upload the firmware
Step 4: Power off the Arduino, connect the panel, reapply power, and everything should work.
