Ender-5 Plus: Serial Connection

Creality Slicing Software & Firmware
1

I misread the list of compatable models for the serial connection (stupidly read Pro as Plus - senior moment!) and bought 2 serial cables. One for the 5 Plus and one for the PrintMill. After getting it all installed in the Plus, having cut down the supplied cable, changed the end to a USB printer style socket and fitted it all inside the box I went to change it over from USB to serial… no option!

Ah well, lesson learned. @Collin @CrealityStore is there any plan in the future to add the Ender-5 Plus to the models that can be serially connected?

No plans at the moment.

No worries, doesn’t hurt to ask!

Best thing I ever did with my Ender 5 Plus connect it to the Creality Pad. So much better interface, connection to LAN/Wifi, file management through a browser, runs much quicker.
