Klipper has grown much more popular, and with that we receive more and more options from developers. In this video, we test CYD Klipper, a simpler alternative to KlipperScreen that can be setup very easily and for little cost. Hopefully it is a viable and affordable option for the Klipper community.

WHAT! Thank you!
(Edit) I'm the author of CYD-Klipper
Bro I love you ❤
Bless you.
Will this work easily on an Artillery Sidewinder X1?
@@LincolnWorld as long as the printer exposes a moonraker api, yea (if you can access mainsail or fluidd via your pc, moonraker is accessible)
You are a legend!
Great video! I'm the person with the cyd repo , im delighted to see it continuing to be useful to people.
I had nothing to do with CYD klipper though, amazing piece of software!
For people asking about using different displays (or bigger displays), its probably relatively easy to port the project to a different display if you you are happy to code it yourself, but the webflash method will only work on this exact display
Thanks for your work on the CYD!
Thanks for providing it!
Ordered 2, just arrived. 5 minutes it was working! Thanks Michael for pointing me to this and thanks to the developers! Awesome work!
Thanks Michael, I love these kind of videos, you have just helped so many makers! I still have the rear case for the Ender 3 you designed, it was one of my first prints, and to this day possibly the most useful. Your work and sharing of it is highly appreciated. Thanks again.
would love to see this be ported to the 5" or 7" capacitive screens, those are 800x480, capacitive, and only a bit more expensive at about £25
Sweet! Been waiting for this for my V-core!
Awesome, thanks for highlighting this great project 🎉
This is incredible! Just ordered 2 screens!
Printed your CYD case and ir came out great with the faceplate on a carbon fiber bed texture!
Good stuff. Just ordered a CYD to try it out.
This takes away the problem of having a SPI screen and not being able to use the ADXL35 at the same time. Awesome video mate 👍🇦🇺😊
Wow this was so easy i even got it to work the first time around lol. Thanks a ton!!
Always with the goods.
Thanks Michael
Mine is already ordered because of this video. I love it!
Wow, what timing. I was just looking into installing klipper on my SV06. This would be a nice upgrade to go along with it.
What a great, cheap option! I managed to get Klipper Screen running on an old HTC One - plugged into a usb port of a RPi4. Works flawlessly. :) But, if I hadn't already set that up, I'd go for this option for sure.
Ordered one immediately after watching this yesterday. Can’t wait to add it to my ender 3v1
this is really neat. thanks for sharing.
Ordering right after seeing this video!
Currently running Klipper Screen with an old LCD screen, a mouse and keyboard. Had all the bits so no extra cost and a huge screen to boot!
your instrustions are slways so precise and easy to understand.
I was hoping if you make an updated video as to how to setup a touch display for raspberry pi running octoprint on my ender 3
I'm not sure, if this screen requires Moonraker or Fluid.
Can someone confirm it's working or not working with octoprint?
Noice. Might have to pick one of these up. My TFT35 is a bit rubbish with klipper.
well I bought one of these of aliexpress for £1.19, just to try this, although I didn't need it. worked well, so now gonna try some different projects with it. Thanks
For that price it's hard to go wrong.
I have two boards like this with the built in touchscreen I bought a while back because they were so cheap. Now I know what to use them for :) Thanks for this. Particularly because the screen on the Ender-3 V3 SE doesn't function in Klipper
Also Klipperscreen was a problem for me with the screen I had, as I couldn't utilise an accelerometer with the display drivers installed
Thank You!
excellent i just got 2 of these from my dad
This is amazing, just need to get klipper working, I had trouble getting mainsail and klipper to interface with each other
Kiauh is your friend!
I used kiauh, its after the installation process in mainsail where it tries to connect with klipper and shows the blue message for 5 minutes, then it goes red @@Anzyclos
Thanks a lot, your Videos are extremely interesting and enjoyable!
I use klipperscreen on a nice old 10" tablet and it was extremely easy to set up. Did I miss this option in the video? Or was it just forgotten to mention?
Awesome mate! Bought!..................2.
Excellent video Michael, thanks.
Can you please do an episode on getting klipper to send notifications to your phone... 'push' notifications with status updates, like first layer done, print finished, etc.
I’ve been running klipper for a while with no screen and I don’t miss it. But for the simplicity and price I think I may add this anyway.
Agreed. For 8$ I could use a pause - stop button and Z-offset
just bought one and set it up, in setting it up it turns out the 3.5" capacitive one is now supported as well, so I'll be picking that up as well, much nicer than resistive screens, and I think it was £12 for the bigger screen
Do you have a link to this one?
I was looking for this
it seems a diy solution is also possible. I just have some tft touch screen by my hand. will have a try this?weekend
ive done it. just used a regular esp32 dev board and a 2.8 inch tft. works perfectly.
I wonder if this project could be ported to work with the included LCDs on machines like the ones included with the Anycubic Kobra series. They’re just a simple lcd with an onboard processor, and if they could be flashed to this project they would already be fully in place and fit into a converted printer
It would have been nice when the also supported bigger screens as well. But other then that it is a very nice setup
You can VNC into klipperscreen with these screens too.
That's wild, good to know!
could you post link on instruction how to do it?
I use an old phone as the klipper host, klipper screen and webcam all at the same time from the same device...
Hi. I think you said on the vid that you had once shown how to use an old tablet as a touchscreen for a printer. If I am right, can you tell me which video it was on. Many thanks
Question. When you are setting IP to the printer. Dose that mean the printer has to be a WiFi enabled device? Also, dose that make the old screen obsolete? I want to do this exact thing for my SR.
Any STL case mount adapter suggestions to mount this to a Ender 3 pro printer using the case in the video?
Thank you for the great video as usual. Is it possible to make this screen show stl thumbnail?
I'd say it's possible but you'd need to know how to edit the source code to include that functionality. Someone could I'm sure, sadly not me. It's been developed on platformio as well, and I've never used that (not that I'd be able to even if I had)
I have a branch that does exactly this, sadly it's unstable as it requires quite a bit of memory to load an image. Maybe it's more bearable when the latest dev has been merged into it
@@SuchMeme i see. Thank you for your reply 😁
@@werxeh i hope so. Still using this screen should be a good alternative to raspberry 5" screen in term of cost
are those the same screens that were used in the DS lite?
Can you print from an SD or micro SD card with klipper? Or do you need to send the print over wifi?
Hey, so to use this method I should have klipper firmware installed on the printer's motherboard and already tuned up to work properly before I use this CYD solution as the controller?
Can you use any ESP32 touch display? I saw some larger ones with better resolution for not a lot more cash. I’m curious if those are a viable upgrade pick.
I’m wondering the same thing I think it will work though it’s the exact same thing just bigger if anything it will work with a border around the edge but should be able to fix by editing the firmware
I don't like adding both this ESP32 plus a pi running the Klipper server. I see expensive Creality Sonic Pad is available to do it all in one. Any suggestions for DIY kits that result in a single enclosure klipper server and touchscreen supporting an input shaping accelerometer?
Out of curiosity, can you plug in an sd card on the back of that screen and transfer files? likely not but Im curious if that is a feature since after klipper conversion, the port on the board becomes useless.
I suspect it might be a future option. The ESP should be well capable of this, it's just a matter of writing the firmware.
If using RatOS, where would I add the CYD macro command to display the set macro buttons I’m currently showing on my mainsail dashboard?
Unfortunately it works only with Moonraker. I use Octoprint so my RepRap-Display will be there. Thanks for the nice Video
Is there a problem connecting to the CYD screen if im running klipper with octoprint and not mainsail? the screen dosent connect to the octoprint ip
Here's a question, I have a Voxelab 3D printer (I'm a newbie to 3D) I also have a spare Rasberry Pi laying around. Is it possible to connect the 2 so that I can access the printer via my network. At the moment it uses ssd cards, which is a pain.
Yes. I was running a Voxlab on a Pi3A+, but it will work with any Pi from a Zero W 2 on up. The Zero W 2 can run full speed with a simple generic USB charger that provides 2000mAh or more,. The other Pi's will throttle to half speed unless you buy a official Pi charger that can pump 2.5 to 3 amps through your USB cable (which most USB cables are not made to do). Personally I've switched to using an old i5 laptop running Debian Linux to run 4 printers. The Pi has no shielding and frequently disconnects during printing due to EMF noise. I did design special unpowered shielded USB cables and used a dedicated 60W power supply for all four Pis on all 4 printers and solved the disconnect issue, but they still throttled, probably because it is hard to find a micro-USB cable with thick wires that is cheap.
Suggestion: use the built in interface if using a laptop
Does the 3d printed case have a stylus holder? Very nice tutorial!
What size connectors do these boards use? Does anyone have a source?
Can i just do the same with octoprint ?
This looks like just the ticket. Question, if I am out of USB ports on my raspberry pi? Can a splitter adapter be used to share the port?
Use an USB Hub
This is just for power, you could also use a buck converter to get 5v from your printer PSU, probably can even use same buck as your rpi if you are already powering from psu
Thank you. That helps and I seem to have options.
Is the CYD comeing to other firmwares?
Nice....my finger was on the button to order. But when I saw it's not fully functional klipperscreen... I backed off...
What is the adfvantages and disadvantages of using CYD Klipper vs Klipper Screen?
The main disadvantage is less options, smaller screen. The advantages are price and ease of installation.
@@sharpfang I see, thanks for letting me know
Does it work with RatOS and is there a version of this for Duet boards?
I got it working on my minion with RatOs and is doing fine. What I struggle with is macros and how to add some basic commands to the screen that I’m showing in mainsail.
If this can work why can't we sort out the BTT LCD which has WiFi capability and running the same code.
This is awesome, but painful to have to use wifi if your klipper printer uses ethernet 😢
Has anyone been able to do this install from a MAC?
If you're using the RPI for power, couldn't someone just make the screen run off serial commands and forego the need for WIFI?
I would really like this to communicate via USB so that you don't need Wi-Fi
Any racing content coming? 😁
An absolute bargain in any language!
Nothing beats just using your phone with browser.
KlipperScreen and easily customizable? Not exactly how I would call it. Interesting alternative.
I despise touch screens. I'd say my touches register maybe 60% of the time. I much prefer the older method with the scroll knob.
Can you really get that touchscreen for $10? i'm in euro area and every screen that has a €10 pricetag, has something like 7€ postage. that seems to be the minimum total price with everyone. that is a capacitive touch version, non-touch and resistive are a bit cheaper
aliexpress?
@@paulmenard8323 yes
Link for product?
Will this work for the 4.3 version? 4.3" inch ESP32 Display ILI9485 IPS TFT LCD Module ESP32-8048S043C-I Capacitive Touch Screen 800x480 ESP32-S3-WROOM-1 Development Board for Arduino IDE
Excellent video and very useful tool! Just one question: Why resistive touch display? C'mon, chinese manufacturers! There are awesome capacitive touch displays out there with IPS panels. These resistive touch TFT panels should all be in a museum until now...
Can I give some feedback on the videos? People don’t have patience for 10-20 second intros anymore. I would suggest shorting the channel spash at the beginning.
This looks like way more than 2 minutes. Must be this video is for those already familiar with klipper, know the code, have a raspberry pie attached to their printer, and know how to do all that before taking the two minutes to install this.
If you already have klipper, this takes very few minutes. I think that is the logic of the video, because installing and configuring klipper will take you a lot more (and I did it manually, not with an image because I use an old laptop for running klipper)
It's just stupid. You have - usb , i2c , spi , uart , gpio and you select get and send data over Wifi !
One of main reasons to have display is reset button , and with this display you have a lag between click it and printer reality resets.
With this you have lag on any action, and you have a ui that doesn't supported by anyone on the community , and it's ugly as hell
Is there no place in the world where you want a printer status display that doesn't have to be hardwired into a pi? I run mine off a battery bank so i can place it anywhere.
Also, i think it's a bit short sighted to say that the screen is not suited to be an emergency stop. I think you'll experience more latency by waiting for the command queue to empty before the emergency stop is actually processed. If you really want an emergency stop, consider the power plug :)
It's a trap 😢
James Hunt? I hope you realise that's rhyming slang for.... something rude.
No views, under 30 seconds, first
This this work with the new Anycubic Kobra 2 Max?
If you see the video, you will realize that this works with every machine under klipper. It connects to the machine using wifi, so no wired connection is needed. The only wired connection you need it to supply power to the screen. If the machine does not come with klipper or you did not mod it to add it, this won't work.
@@santiagopostorivo I watched the video. Sorry new to 3d printing. I didn’t realize it until I got it that Anycubic locks down their entire printer so you cannot mod it. So that’s why I asked. Sorry.
