Display Panels
Display Panels mount two different types of display screens:
- MCU displays include various TFT and older 128x64 character LCD diplays.
- Raspberry Pi displays are TFT displays, usually used with OctoPrint or Klipper.
MCU Displays
Each supported MCU display screen has a subfolder in the Panels/Display git folder. There is an optional STL
for a display knob, as well.
Component names below link to the corresponding git folder.
Component | Image | Notes |
---|---|---|
Generic 12864 | ![]() |
Also known as Creality CR-10 stock display; comes on most Creality printers. |
FYSETC Mini 12864 | ![]() |

BigTreeTech 2.4" TFT | ![]() |
This product is discontinued, but I still use it, so there's a part. |
BigTreeTech 3.5" TFT | ![]() |
Note that this is not the E3 version, which would use the Generic 12864 mount. |
All of these mounts require four (4) 8mm M3 screws to fasten the display in place. Some mounts have two pieces and require additional screws.
Raspberry Pi Displays
Compatibility
Any TFT designed with mounts points for a Raspberry Pi on the back should be compatible.
Compatible examples include:
- BigTreeTech Pi TFT displays (using included hardware)
- Raspberry Pi-branded 7" TFT (with additional standoffs and M2.5 screws)
Mounting Methods
These displays can be attached in one of two ways:
- In place of the MCU display as a Display Panel,
- Or as a Lid above the MCU display mount.
See below for examples.
