Ender-5 Plus Configurations for Marlin Firmware

Important

The Ender-5 LCD stock firmware is only compatible with Creality firmware. The LCD standard UI will not function. This is expected. With the stock LCD firmware Marlin can only be controlled from a host over USB.

Marlin DGUS UI "Reloaded" Instructions

The Ender-5 stock LCD can optionally use a customized Marlin DGUS interface. To use DGUS_LCD_UI RELOADED the stock LCD must be flashed with custom firmware.

Get the DWIN_SET

Download the DWIN_SET archive from https://github.com/MarlinFirmware/Configurations/raw/bugfix-2.1.x/config/examples/Creality/Ender-5%20Plus/DGUS-Reloaded/DWIN_SET.tar.gz
Extract the contents of the archive. You should now have a folder called DWIN_SET.

Prepare the SD Card

Format a Micro-SD card, selecting FAT32 for the file system and 4096 bytes sector size. These parameters are required for the procedure to work.
Copy the DWIN_SET folder to the root of the Micro-SD card.
Unmount and unplug your Micro-SD card.

Flash the touchscreen

Turn off and unplug your printer (both power and USB).
You will need to access the Micro-SD slot on the back of the touchscreen (not the one that may be on your mainboard). If necessary, open the printer to access this slot.
Insert the Micro-SD card into the screen SD slot.
Plug the printer's power cable back in (but not the USB cable) and turn on the printer.
After a few seconds the screen background will turn blue and the firmware flash will begin. Do not cut power to the printer while the procedure is running!
When the procedure ends the screen will display a blue background with an END message on the first line and a summary.
Turn off the printer. Remove the Micro-SD card from the touchscreen. Reassemble the printer if needed.
The touch-screen firmware is now up-to-date.

Restoring Factory Firmware

The original firmware can be restored by downloading the Ender 5 Plus firmware from Creality. You can follow the same LCD flashing procedure using the Creality-provided DWIN_SET folder.
