      I am currently upgrading some Tevo Little Monsters to have the Duet 2 wifi board as opposed to the MKS Base 1.3. Is it possible to continue using the MKS TFT28 display? has this firmware been released or is it even in the works?

      thanks

          The MKS and BTT TFT's can be used with duet boards.
          For the config, you would use

          M575 P1 S1 B57600
          

          or

          M575 P1 S3 B57600
          

          and you would connect the screen to the paneldue port. Some firmware features won't work due to the firmware one the screens being written for marlin, but temperatures etc should be reported and you should be able to home.

            @jay_s_uk thanks for the reply, when you say some of the firmware features won't work I was wondering what ones? you say temperatures etc should be reported but will I still be able to control the extruder/bed temp from the panel as well as extrude/retract filament?

              @Veti thanks for your reply and apologies for my ignorance, I'm a bit of a novice with these things, I'm not sure what you're showing me here.

                you should be able to set temperatures and also extrude and retract filament.
                there may be parts around bed levelling, macros etc that won't work.
                I've tested one briefly with the LPC/STM port of RRF but didn't use it in anger.

                There is a tweaked version of the BTT TFT firmware thats more suited to RRF available here https://github.com/JimmymaDdness/BIGTREETECH-TouchScreenFirmware-Duet

                There is also this firmware for the MKS screens available here https://github.com/robotsrulz/MKS-TFT but I don't know how functional/featured it is and it isn't being maintained

                    you can connect a raspberry pi to the duet just like with the duet 3.
                    you can then use a touch screen on the raspberry to control the duet

                        There's also DueUI if you have a spare tablet and want a customized interface.

                          I just came across this thread and since I had an old Bigtree TFT-24 lying around I thought I would give it a try.
                          I connected the 4 pin connector to the PanelDue connector and updated the firmware on the TFT. It comes up with all the icons but says no printer is connected. Do I have to connect more than the 4 pin connector?

                            @GeorgeM What firmware version are you using on the duet?

                            You may need to add a M575 command as listed by Jay above.

                              @GeorgeM You 100% need an M575 in the config and you need to set the baud on the BTT panel to 57600

                                @Phaedrux I would suggest going with

                                M575 P1 S3 B57600
                                

                                You also need to be running RRF 3

                                  I should have been more specific.
                                  I'm running 3.1.1
                                  I do have the M575 P1 S3 B57600 in my config file
                                  I have a duet2 wifi

                                    @GeorgeM on the btt tft you need to match the 57600 baud rate as well...if not wont work!

                                      I'm not sure how to do that. I just followed the directions linked above at github and copied the files to the sdcard. I assumed that since the directions said to have the M575 line in the config then the bin file contained info to set the baud rate.
                                      Anyway its no big deal if I dont get it working. Just thought I would give it a try.

                                        Is there a menu on the panel itself?

                                            OK, found that. Didn't help.
                                            If I have only the 4 pin connector connected, then I can see and operate all the icons but says printer not connected. If I then connect the 10 pin connector the screen comes up with the option for Marlin or TFT, however it will not accept any input -- will not go off that screen.
                                            Again, I don't want you guys to spend a lot of time on this as it isn't a make or break problem. I would like to know if it is something simple I am overlooking.
