As we all know, the Klipper firmware has the advantages of high printing speed, high precision, and the ability to use the web page to control the printer, etc. MKS PI is a high-end microcomputer board designed by makerbase to replace the Raspberry Pi for the convenience of 3D printing users to use the Klipper firmware. In terms of hardware, MKS PI has a powerful 4-core 64-bit SOC onboard, with 1GBytes of DDR3 memory, supports HDMI screen interface and PI-TS35 screen interface, provides Ethernet port, 3-channel USB interfaces (can be connected to a 3D printer main board, USB Wireless network card, USB camera, U disk, USB keyboard and mouse, etc.); In terms of software, Makerbase provides a complete Klipper firmware transplanted based on the Armbian desktop system, and directly supports klipperScreen. Users only need to download the image file provided by Makerbase, burn it to the TF card, without a lot of construction work, use the usb port or serial port to connect your main board, configure the parameters on the webpage, and you can use the Klipper firmware happily!

mks-pi + pi-ts35 #23

Using the install system image linked in the instructions ( https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1tTuSvF9OL2qtPXElau8YOXn2sWbdxa9e?usp=sharing) & the PI-TS35 touch screen, all installed & I can see Klipper on the screen.

I am unable to get the touchscreen to recognise anything.

I was able to install & test xlibinput_calibrator from https://github.com/fbeltrao-br/mksts35 - this displayed the 4 corners cross & let me touchscreen on them - this proves the hardware works.... if I just used xinput_calibrator, it always complained that the touch was outside the limits... even if I used a stylus accurately!

So is the problem with Klipperscreen or something else?

OMG, i have the same problem, even bought a 2nd one just to make sure I wasn't going crazy, have you found a solution to this? I'm at my wits end

psjshep commented 1 year ago

Nope... I moved on & used a PI with a bigger touch screen...

Never heard anything from here on github.... looks like they post but don't bother reading the issues....

Good luck... post back if you hear anything
