2) Add the following code at the end of the file “config.txt”, save and eject Micro SD Card safely:
max_usb_current=1
hdmi_force_hotplug=1
config_hdmi_boost=7
hdmi_group=2
hdmi_mode=1
hdmi_mode=87
hdmi_drive=2
hdmi_cvt 800 480 60 6 0 0 0
Step 3, Insert the Micro SD Card to Raspberry Pi, connect the Raspberry Pi and LCD by HDMI cable; connect USB cable to one of the four USB ports of Raspberry Pi, and connect the other end of the USB cable to the USB port of the LCD; then supply power to Raspberry Pi; after that if the display and touch both are OK, it means drive successfully.
【How to rotate display direction】
Step 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 ./MPI5001-show |
After execution, the driver will be installed.
Step 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, Back to Step 1 to install the latest drivers.
