Hi,
just upgraded from Geeetech I3 ProB to a A30 and a good move. I want to instal a 3D Touch which I thought would be plug and play, but do research it does not seem that straight forward.

To install I need to

1. Remove 3 pin socket and install 5 pins see pic's

2. Flash firmware with A30_3Dtouch_V3.zip

3. update the UI for LCD after upload the firmware
A30 Refer to this post:

Questions

a, Is this all that is necessary to install the 3D Touch?

b, What way do the wires go on the 5 pins ( Colour left to right )?

c, What type of board is this - ref image

Hi,

Thank you for the reply William.

So the board will be ok for the touch sensor when I solder the 5 pins in?
