Description

This is my first time using Github so I'm sorry if this isn't the right place.

While trying to determine if there's a way to connect a DWIN creality LCD to the Octopus Max EZ I noticed the pinout for the lcd in the readme file does not match the schematic.

For example on the readme file LCD_RS should read LCD_CS according to the schematic and the pinout for the mini_12864 v2.0 (which is the only screen supported according to Marlin). There could be others like BTN_ENC1 instead of ENCA but I lack the technical knowledge to determine if those are the same thing.

Here's is the schematic for the P3 connector on the Octopus Max EZ

Here's the pinout for the mini_12864 v2.0

Research direction

Compare the LCD pinout in the README with the P3 connector mapping in sch.pdf and the mini_12864 v2.0 pinout shown in the issue. Check whether LCD_RS versus LCD_CS and BTN_ENC1 versus ENCA are naming mismatches, then update the README so all documented mappings agree with the schematic.】【。
