Tiger Touch for Klipper 3D printers

Tiger Touch turns a BIGTREETECH Panda Touch or K-Touch into a live screen for any Klipper printer with Moonraker: progress, temperatures, up to four extruders, the light and AFC or Happy Hare lanes.

What it shows

  • State, progress, layers, time left and the file being printed
  • Up to four extruders, the bed and a chamber sensor
  • AFC lanes or a Happy Hare MMU, the active one ringed

From the screen

Pause, resume and stop through Moonraker; stop asks for a confirmation first. The light switches when the printer has an LED chain or an output pin named like a light.

How it connects

Moonraker over HTTP on your local network (port 7125 unless you give another), read every 2 seconds, with an API key when Moonraker asks for one.

Tested on real printers

Seen on a real Klipper printer: state, progress, temperatures, pause, resume, stop and the light; every state, the errors and four AFC lanes were also run against Tiger Studio Manager's test printer.

Set it up in three steps

  1. 1

    Make sure Moonraker answers on your network (Mainsail or Fluidd use it already).

  2. 2

    Add the printer in Tiger Studio Manager (desktop app) with its address; Tiger Touch does not resolve .local names.

  3. 3

    Flash Tiger Touch, sign in with the same TigerSystem account, and switch the printer on in Settings > Printers.

Good to know

Write the printer's numeric IP address (such as 192.168.x.y), not a name ending in .local such as voron.local: the screen has no mDNS.
