-Please note, JGAurora has released a **second-generation A3S MkII** for 2019, which is based on the A5S printer. If your A3S has an SD card slot at the front, then you have the new version, and should refer to the [[/a5s|A5S]] page for more relevant information. If your A3S has a USB stick port on the side, then you have the first-generation A3S, and should read on! :-)+Please note, JGAurora has released a **second-generation A3S MkII** for 2019, which is based on the [[/a5s|A5S]] printer.

 These printers have TWO motherboards - there is a main motherboard (it is an {{:a5:mks-gen-l.jpg?linkonly|MKS Gen L}}) which runs the printer, and a second motherboard attached to the LCD (an {{:a5:mks-tft28.jpg?linkonly|MKS 2.8" LCD module}}) which handles the LCD touch screen interface. They are completely separate devices, and the only communication between the two occurs by an internal serial port. The LCD motherboard sends basic gcode commands to the main motherboard, and then listens for the replies. These printers have TWO motherboards - there is a main motherboard (it is an {{:a5:mks-gen-l.jpg?linkonly|MKS Gen L}}) which runs the printer, and a second motherboard attached to the LCD (an {{:a5:mks-tft28.jpg?linkonly|MKS 2.8" LCD module}}) which handles the LCD touch screen interface.
