== '''Features''' ==
 +
*800 × 480 hardware resolution.
 +
*5-point capacitive touch control.
 +
*When used with Raspberry Pi, supports Raspberry Pi OS / Ubuntu / Kali and Retropie.
 +
*When used as a computer monitor, supports Windows 11/10/8.1/8/7.
 +
*Support backlight control, saving more power.
 +
 
 +
=='''Working with PC'''==
 +
 
 +
This LCD can support Windows 7/8/8.1/10/11 system.
 +
 
 +
How to use:
 +
 
 +
1) Turn on the backlight switch on the back of the LCD.
  
[http://www.waveshare.com/7inch-HDMI-LCD-B.htm More]
+
2) Connect the Touch interface of the LCD to the USB interface of the PC. Wait for a while, the windows will automatically recognize the touch function.
== Revision ==
 
=== For revisions under Rev2.1 ===
 
* For the Raspberry Pi, comes with Raspbian driver (works with your Raspbian directly), and Ubuntu image
 
* When work as a computer monitor, touch function is unavailable
 
=== Rev2.1 New Features ===
 
* Standard HID protocol, easy to be integrated into your system.
 
* For the Raspberry Pi, supports Raspbian, Ubuntu, Windows 10 IoT, single touch, and driver free.
 
* When work as a computer monitor, supports Windows 10/8.1/8/7, five-points touch, and driver free.
 
=== How to Distinguish ===
 
* See the backside of your LCD. The Revision number "Rev2.1" printed means that the LCD firmware is Rev 2.1.
 
* However, "Rev1.1" printed on the backside doesn't mean that the LCD firmware must be Rev 1.1. Generally speaking, a LCD shipped after January 1, 2016 may be a Rev 2.1 one, although it was printed "Rev1.1".
 
  
'''Note:'''
+
3) Connect the HDMI interface of the LCD to the HDMI interface of the PC.
The only difference between Rev 1.1 and Rev 2.1 is the firmware, but hardware solutions, placement and routing are all the same. (PCB printings might be different due to different production batches.)
 
  
You can verify the firmware by these steps:
+
Note: <br />
 +
1) When the computer is connected to several different displays at the same time, only this LCD can be used to control the cursor on the main display, so we recommended to set this LCD as the main display.<br />
 +
2) Some PCs do not support plug-and-play with HDMI devices. Generally, they can be used normally after restarting the system.<br />
 +
3) Some PCs may cause LCD flickering due to insufficient power supply through the USB interface. Generally, they can be used normally after connecting to an external 5V/2A power supply through the DC interface.<br />
  
1. Using Raspberry Pi: Connect the LCD to your Pi (HDMI Port of LCD -> HDMI Port of Pi; USB Port of LCD -> USB Port of Pi; 5V~2A power supply). Download the image, e.g. Raspbian 2015-11-21 jessie or Raspbian 2015-05-05 wheezy, from [https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/ Raspberry Pi web site]. Write the image to a TF card and add the following code to the end of /boot/config.txt:
+
==''' Working with Raspberry Pi'''==
 +
 
 +
This LCD can support Raspberry Pi OS / Ubuntu / Kali and Retropie systems. When the LCD works on systems such as Raspberry Pi OS, the resolution must be set manually, otherwise, it will cause an abnormal display.
 +
 
 +
Please download the latest version of the image on the [https://www.raspberrypi.com/software/operating-systems/ Raspberry Pi official website.]
 +
 
 +
1) Download the compressed file to the PC, and unzip it to get the .img file.
 +
 
 +
2) Connect the TF card to the PC, and use [https://files.waveshare.com/upload/d/d7/Panasonic_SDFormatter.zip SDFormatter] software to format the TF card.
 +
 
 +
3) Open the [https://files.waveshare.com/upload/7/76/Win32DiskImager.zip Win32DiskImager] software, select the system image downloaded in step 1, and click 'Write' to write the system image.
 +
 
 +
4) After the image has finished writing, open the config.txt file in the root directory of the TF card, add the following code at the end of config.txt, then save and quit the TF card safely.
 +
hdmi_group=2
 +
hdmi_mode=87
 +
hdmi_cvt 800 480 60 6 0 0 0
 +
hdmi_drive=1
 +
5) Insert the TF card into the Raspberry Pi
 +
 
 +
6) Turn on the backlight switch on the back of the LCD.
 +
 
 +
7) Connect the Touch interface of the LCD to the USB interface of the Raspberry Pi.
 +
 
 +
8) Connect the HDMI interface of the LCD to the HDMI interface of the Raspberry Pi, power on the Raspberry Pi,  and wait for a few seconds until the LCD displays normally.

Introduction

7 inch Capacitive Touch Screen LCD, HDMI interface, with a resolution of 800 × 480and a capacitive touch panel, which supports Raspberry Pi and can also be used as a computer monitor.

More

Features

  • 800 × 480 hardware resolution.
  • 5-point capacitive touch control.
  • When used with Raspberry Pi, supports Raspberry Pi OS / Ubuntu / Kali and Retropie.
  • When used as a computer monitor, supports Windows 11/10/8.1/8/7.
  • Support backlight control, saving more power.

Working with PC

This LCD can support Windows 7/8/8.1/10/11 system.

How to use:

1) Turn on the backlight switch on the back of the LCD.

2) Connect the Touch interface of the LCD to the USB interface of the PC. Wait for a while, the windows will automatically recognize the touch function.

3) Connect the HDMI interface of the LCD to the HDMI interface of the PC.

Note:
1) When the computer is connected to several different displays at the same time, only this LCD can be used to control the cursor on the main display, so we recommended to set this LCD as the main display.
2) Some PCs do not support plug-and-play with HDMI devices. Generally, they can be used normally after restarting the system.
3) Some PCs may cause LCD flickering due to insufficient power supply through the USB interface. Generally, they can be used normally after connecting to an external 5V/2A power supply through the DC interface.

Working with Raspberry Pi

This LCD can support Raspberry Pi OS / Ubuntu / Kali and Retropie systems. When the LCD works on systems such as Raspberry Pi OS, the resolution must be set manually, otherwise, it will cause an abnormal display.

Please download the latest version of the image on the Raspberry Pi official website.

1) Download the compressed file to the PC, and unzip it to get the .img file.

2) Connect the TF card to the PC, and use SDFormatter software to format the TF card.

3) Open the Win32DiskImager software, select the system image downloaded in step 1, and click 'Write' to write the system image.

4) After the image has finished writing, open the config.txt file in the root directory of the TF card, add the following code at the end of config.txt, then save and quit the TF card safely.

hdmi_group=2
hdmi_mode=87
hdmi_cvt 800 480 60 6 0 0 0
hdmi_drive=1

5) Insert the TF card into the Raspberry Pi

6) Turn on the backlight switch on the back of the LCD.

7) Connect the Touch interface of the LCD to the USB interface of the Raspberry Pi.

8) Connect the HDMI interface of the LCD to the HDMI interface of the Raspberry Pi, power on the Raspberry Pi, and wait for a few seconds until the LCD displays normally.

EDID Sequence Parameters

If the system of the main control board can automatically recognize the EDID for display, there is no need to additionally set related timing parameters.

Otherwise, you can refer to the following EDID settings:

Pixel Clock H Addressable H Blanking V Addressable V Blanking H Front Porch H Sync Width V Front Porch V Sync Width H Image Size V Image Size H Border V Border
32.00 800 128 480 45 40 48 13 3 108 68 0 0

Then connect the PWM pad to the P1 pin of the Raspberry Pi.
Execute the following command on the Raspberry Pi terminal:

 gpio -g pwm 18 0
 gpio -g mode 18 pwm (occupied pins are PWM pins)
 gpio pwmc 1000
 gpio -g pwm 18 X (X ranges from 0 to 1024), 0 is the brightest, 1024 is the darkest

 Answer:

As shown in the diagram below, solder R80 to a 68K resistor instead, R59 to a 5.1K resistor, and remove the R56 resistor.
Then connect the PWM pad to the P1 pin of the Raspberry Pi.
Execute the following command in the Raspberry Pi terminal:

gpio -g pwm 18 0
gpio -g mode 18 pwm (occupied pins are PWM pins)
gpio pwmc 1000
gpio -g pwm 18 X (X value between 0 and 1024), 0 is the brightest, and 1024 is the darkest.
