How to use with Raspbian/Ubuntu Mate/Win10 IoT Core System

• Step 1, Install Raspbian official image

1. Download the latest image from the official download.
2. Install the system according to the official tutorial steps.

• Step 2, Install LCD Driver Online

Use SSH to connect the raspberry pi,

And Ensure that the raspberry pi is connected to the Internet before executing the following commands:

sudo rm -rf LCD-show
git clone https://github.com/goodtft/LCD-show.git
chmod -R 755 LCD-show
cd LCD-show/
sudo ./LCD5-show

How to use as PC monitor

• Connect the computer HDMI output signal to the LCD HDMI interface by using the HDMI cable
• Connect the LCD’s USB Touch interface (Either of the two MicroUSB) to the USB port of the device
• If there are several monitors, please unplug other monitor connectors first, and use LCD as the only monitor for testing.

How to rotate the display direction

This method only applies to the Raspberry Pi series of display screens, other display screens do not apply.

• Method 1，If the driver is not installed, execute the following command (Raspberry Pi needs to connected to the Internet):

sudo rm -rf LCD-show
git clone https://github.com/goodtft/LCD-show.git
chmod -R 755 LCD-show
cd LCD-show/
sudo ./XXX-show 90

After execution, the driver will be installed. The system will automatically restart, and the display screen will rotate 90 degrees to display and touch normally.
（ ‘ XXX-show ‘ can be changed to the corresponding driver, and ‘ 90 ‘ can be changed to 0, 90, 180 and 270, respectively representing rotation angles of 0 degrees, 90 degrees, 180 degrees, 270 degrees）

• Method 2，If the driver is already installed, execute the following command:

cd LCD-show/
sudo ./rotate.sh 90

After execution, the system will automatically restart, and the display screen will rotate 90 degrees to display and touch normally.
（ ‘ 90 ‘ can be changed to 0, 90, 180 and 270, respectively representing rotation angles of 0 degrees, 90 degrees, 180 degrees, 270 degrees）
If the rotate.sh prompt cannot be found, use Method 1 to install the latest drivers
