MKS TFT24 with MKS DLC32

Random or Off Topic

I ordered a new MKS DLC32 V2.1 board WITH the MKS TFT24 V1.1 screen as a package deal. But they don’t even connect to each other. Unless I am going crazy.

It comes with a cable that has an 8 pin (2x4) header on either end. As you can see below, this connects to the TFT just fine.

But as you can see here, the headers on the MKS DLC32 board require a 10 pin (2x5) header…

Why would they sell these as a package deal if they don’t go together? Am I missing something?

I ordered this set from Creality3Dparts.com

It says it comes with QTY 2 of the 10pin cables… I only received QTY 1 of an 8pin cable. Sounds like their mistake.

Oh dear!.. the shop has made a boo-boo and sent you a tft24 instead of a TS24. They might want that back!

Well that explains it then…

Luckily their customer service has responded so hopefully they will correct it.
