Posted · Printer is not listed. Tronxy x5

Good afternoon. So I bought a Tronxy x5 about 5 years ago. Just got around building it. Downloaded Cura and it has a lot of Tronxy printers but now mine. 
 

I’m stuck now on what to do. 
 

if anyone can help i would be greatly appreciative.

    Install one of the X5SA models and on the right side of the first dialog is a box where you can change the name of the printer.  The second dialog that comes up should be the Machine Settings.  Make sure that the X(width), Y(depth) and Z(height) match your printer.  Your actual "printable area" needs to be entered there and not just the physical size of the printer build surface.  On the right are the print head settings.  They describe the "crash" size of the print head when using the One at a Time option in Cura.

    The "gcode flavor" is the most important setting and it looks as if the TronXY printers use Marlin.

        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
