Operating Instructions

Power On/Off

To power on the display, ensure it is connected to a 5V power source via the Type-C port (9), then press the Power button (5).
To power off, press and hold the Power button (5) until the display turns off.

Using the OSD Menu

The On-Screen Display (OSD) menu allows you to adjust various display settings.

Press the OSD Menu button (1) to open the menu.
Use the Left/Up (2) and Right/Down (3) buttons to navigate through menu options.
Press the OSD Menu button (1) again to select an option or confirm a setting.
Use the Return button (4) to go back to the previous menu or exit the OSD.

Touch Functionality

The display features a 5-point capacitive touch screen.

Ensure the Type-C cable is connected from the display's Touch & Power Type-C port (9) to a USB port on your host device (e.g., Raspberry Pi, Windows PC).
For compatible operating systems (Linux-based systems like Raspbian, Ubuntu, and Windows 7/8/10/11), touch functionality is typically driver-free and plug-and-play.
If touch input is not recognized, verify the Type-C connection and ensure your operating system supports external touchscreens.

Maintenance and Care

Cleaning: Use a soft, lint-free cloth slightly dampened with water or a screen cleaner to wipe the display surface. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive materials, or excessive moisture.
Handling: Handle the display by its edges. Avoid applying pressure to the screen surface, especially when transporting.
Storage: Store the display in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. If storing for extended periods, use the original packaging or a protective case.
Power: Always use the recommended 5V power supply. Disconnect power during electrical storms or when not in use for long periods.
Ventilation: Ensure adequate ventilation around the display to prevent overheating. Do not block any ventilation openings.

Troubleshooting

No Display / Black Screen

Check Power: Ensure the Type-C cable is securely connected to a 5V power source and the display's Type-C port. Verify the power source is active.
Check HDMI Connection: Ensure the HDMI cable is firmly connected to both the display's HDMI input and your host device's HDMI output. Try a different HDMI cable if available.
Input Source: If your host device has multiple video outputs, ensure the correct output is selected. On the display, use the OSD menu to verify the input source is set to HDMI.
Host Device Output: Confirm your host device (e.g., Raspberry Pi, PC) is powered on and configured to output video to the connected display.

Touch Functionality Not Working

Check Type-C Connection: The Type-C cable carries both power and touch data. Ensure it is securely connected to both the display and a USB data port on your host device.
Operating System Support: Verify that your operating system (e.g., specific Linux distribution, Windows version) supports external capacitive touchscreens and has the necessary drivers. Most modern OS are plug-and-play.
Calibration: Some operating systems may require touch screen calibration. Refer to your OS documentation for calibration procedures.
Restart: Try restarting both the display and your host device.

Image Quality Issues (Flickering, Distorted Colors)

Cable Integrity: Inspect the HDMI cable for any damage. Try a different HDMI cable.
Resolution Settings: Ensure your host device's output resolution is compatible with the display's native resolution (1024x600). Adjust settings on your host device if necessary.
Power Supply: An unstable or insufficient power supply can cause image issues. Ensure you are using a stable 5V power source.
OSD Adjustments: Use the OSD menu to adjust brightness, contrast, and color settings.
