Pre-configured Image

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

OS Revision Raspberry Pi User name/Password Link
Retropie v4.7 CM4 series user: pi \ password: raspberry Google drive

2) Connect the TF card to the PC, use SDFormatter.exe 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, insert the TF card into GPM280, turn on the switch, and then the system will start normally.

【Note】If the battery power is too low (the indicators flash red light or the indicator lights are off), the system will not be able to start. In this case, you need to charge the GPM280 by connecting a 5V 3A power adapter to the Micro USB interface. The indicator lights will flash when charging, and the GPM280 supports charging while playing games.

Configure image manually (Retropie)

1. Download the newest Retropie image(the GPM280 can support Retropie 4.7.1 now) from the official website, and unzip it to get the .img file.
