How to use with Raspbian/Ubuntu Mate/ Kali/ Retropie System:

Method 1: quick install (raspberry pi needs Internet connection)

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: insert the SD card into the raspberry pie and connect the hardware as shown in the picture:

Step 3,Install LCD driver

log in the raspberry pie system with Putty connection to the user command line (initial username: PI password :raspberry) 2) execute the following command (Mouse Right-click can paste the code in Putty):

sudo rm -rf LCD-show

git clone https://github.com/goodtft/LCD-show.git

chmod -R 755 LCD-show

cd LCD-show/

sudo ./MPI3508-show

After executing the above command, the system will restart automatically, and display and touch will be OK.

Method 2: offline installation

Step 1: install the official image of Raspbian/Ubuntu    

1. Download the latest Raspbian or Ubuntu image from the official website https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/
2. Format the TF card with SDFormatter,
3. Use Win32DiskImager to burn the official image to the TF card.

Step 2, modify the "config.txt"     

1. After the step 1 completion of burning in the CD Driver in the folder "show-LCD.tar.gz" copy to TF-card root directory,
2. Open the config.txt file in TF-card root directory and add the following code to the end of the file. Save and colse TF card:

hdmi_force_hotplug=1

config_hdmi_boost=7

hdmi_drive=2

hdmi_force_hotplug=1

hdmi_group=2

hdmi_mode=87

hdmi_cvt 480 320 60 6 0 0 0

Step 3: insert the SD card into the raspberry pie and connect the hardware

Step 4: power the raspberry, connect the mouse keyboard, and open the terminal terminal terminal on the raspberry pie:

How to use as PC monitor

1. Connect the computer HDMI output signal to the LCD HDMI interface by using the HDMI cable
2. Connect the LCD's USB Power interface to the USB port of the device
3. If there are several monitors, please unplug other monitor connectors first, and use LCD as the only monitor for testing.
4. Note: touch function can only be used for raspberry pi.
