CR-6 Touchscreen firmware

Attempt to extend the CR-6-touchscreen firmware to operate with DWIN display hardware flashed with and calibrated to run DGUS2 v4.5 or higher, such as those being sold with new CR6 machines as of approximately Dec 2021.

NOTE: The June 2021 release of the CF6.1 Touchscreen firmware remains valid for use on all CR6 printers currently running and calibrated for DGUS2 v3.5.

To find out which version of DGUS2 is running on your display, "flash" your display with a micro SD card that contains ONLY an EMPTY folder named DWIN_SET. The top line on the blue screen will display the current DGUS2 version.

If you have a BTT SKR board with the BTT TFT you do not need this firmware. This firmware is only for when you use the stock Creality LCD with the stock or BTT motherboard.
