After spending best part of yesterday, trying to pair Mini E3 V3 with 12864 V2, scouring the internet for available solutions, I have found that the documentation published by BTT on Github, does not match at least my display. Potentially many others. So here’s what worked for me.

Klipper pin designations:

  • cs_pin corresponds to LCD-EN
  • a0_pin corresponds to LCD-CS
  • rst_pin corresponds to D4

Please note, these displays like a lot of contrast. I’ve spun in circles until I realised that display is showing info, just not very visible due to contrast settings. Check out the lcd.cfg.

Other connections needed are as per png attached.
