4) HP audio output only works while using HDMI communication
5) Mini HDMI to VGA Cable is necessary and need to be purchased separately if you use VGA communication. Supports Raspberry Pi OS / Ubuntu / Kali / Retropie system.

Working with Raspberry Pi

When working with Raspberry Pi, you should set the resolution of the LCD by yourself, otherwise, the LCD screen will not work. For more detailed information, please read the following section.

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 writing, open the config.txt file in the root directory of the TF card and comment out dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-V3D.

5) Add the following lines to the end of config.txt, then save and eject the TF card safely.

max_usb_current=1
hdmi_force_hotplug=1 
config_hdmi_boost=10
hdmi_group=2 
hdmi_mode=87 
hdmi_cvt 1024 600 60 6 0 0 0

Note: If it is Raspberry Pi 4, you also need to comment out dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-V3D.

  1. Save and insert the TF card into the Raspberry Pi.
  2. Connect the Touch port of the LCD to the USB port of the Raspberry Pi.
  3. Connect the LCD's HDMI port to the Raspberry Pi's HDMI port, power up the Raspberry Pi, and wait a few seconds normally and it will display normally.
