Example of connecting a screen with Raspberry Pi.
Connection with Raspberry Pi
To start the screen, connect the device to the Raspberry Pi via the supplied cables: HDMI and microUSB. The HDMI connector transmits the image and the USB port receives the touch interface data.
Software
The screen works with the latest Raspbian system without the need to install drivers. However, in order for the screen to display correctly you need to change the resolution in the configuration file. To do this, open the config.txt file with a command:
- sudo nano /boot/config.txt
and then add the following instructions at its end:
- max_framebuffer_height=1920
- max_usb_current=1
- config_hdmi_boost=10
- hdmi_group=2
- hdmi_force_hotplug=1
- hdmi_mode=87
- hdmi_timings=1080 1 26 4 50 1920 1 8 2 6 0 0 60 0 135580000 3
After saving the file and restarting the raspberry, the image and touch function should work properly.
