Tutorial

Use with Raspberry Pi

Hardware connection

Prepare the accessories as shown below. The Raspberry Pi 5 will be used as a connection demonstration here. 

Step 1: Connect the cables ①, ②, and ③ to the bottom panel of the screen as shown in the following figure.


Step 2: Connect the other end of the cable ① to the LCD adapter (select ④ or ⑤ according to the Raspberry Pi motherboard model), and then plug the adapter into the Micro HDMI interface of the Raspberry Pi.


Step 3: Connect the other end of wire ② to the USB interface of the Raspberry Pi motherboard, and the other end of wire ③ to the 5V 5A GND pin header of the Raspberry Pi.


Step 4: Check that all the wiring is correct, and then connect it to the 5V 3A power supply to use.


Software setup

Raspberry Pi OS / Ubuntu / Kali and Retropie systems are supported.
When the LCD works on systems such as Raspberry Pi, the resolution must be set manually, otherwise the display resolution will be incorrect and the experience will be affected.

1. Please download the latest version of the image from Raspberry Pi official website
2. Download the compressed file to your PC and decompress it to get the .img file
3. Connect the TF card to the PC and use SDFormatter software to format the TF card
4. Open Win32DiskImager software, select the system image prepared in step 1, and click write to burn the system image
5. After burning is completed, open the config.txt file in the root directory of the TF card, add the following code at the end of config.txt, save and safely pop up the TF card

hdmi_group=2
hdmi_mode=87
hdmi_force_hotplug=1 
config_hdmi_boost=10
hdmi_timings=1920 0 48 32 80 1200 0 3 6 26 0 0 0 60 0 154000000 0

6. Insert the TF card into the Raspberry Pi, power on the Raspberry Pi, and wait for a few seconds to display it normally

Use with PC

Support Windows 11/10/8.1/8/7 system

How to use: 1. Connect the Touch interface of the LCD to the USB interface of the PC, and Windows will automatically recognize the touch function.
2. Connect the HDMI interface of the LCD to the HDMI interface of the PC, and Windows will automatically recognize the display function.

  • Note:
  • Some PCs do not support plug-and-play for HDMI devices. Generally, they can be used normally after restarting the system.
  • If the power supply to the USB interface is insufficient, it will cause the LCD screen to flash. By connecting an external 5V 3A power adapter to the LCD's Power interface, normal use can be restored.

Touch screen specified for Windows

Take Windows 10 system as an example:

  • 1. Enter the system's Windows settings, enter in the search bar and click "Calibrate pen and touch input screen" (as shown in the picture below)


  • 2. In the pop-up "Tablet Settings" interface, click "Settings"


  • 3.The screen will display a text prompt as shown below, please tap the touchpad with your finger, and the computer will recognize it as a touch screen.
PS: If the screen is blank, please press the "Enter" key, and the text prompt will switch the screen. (The screen corresponding to the text prompt will be used as a touch screen.)
