## Description

♥Friendly tips♥ Hardware Connection  1, Plug the LCD to your Raspberry Pi: There are 40 pins on Raspberry Pi Model A+/B+/2 B/3 B but only 26 pins on the LCD, so you should pay attention to connecting the pins to your Pi accordingly.  2, Connect the HDMI Connector to both the HDMI interfaces on the LCD and the Pi. You should connect the LCD to Raspberry Pi Model B or Raspberry Pi Zero with an HDMI cable rather than an HDMI Connector.  3, Turn on the "backlight" switch on the back of the LCD.  ♥You can enable the touch in two ways: ♥ Method 1. install driver to your Raspbian/Ubuntu Mate OS.  Method 2. use the Ready-to-use image file of which LCD driver was pre-installed.  What's in the box  5inch HDMI LCD x 1  HDMI connector x 1  Touch pen x 1  RPi screws pack (4pcs) x 1  DVD × 1

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I copied the image file but winzip had trouble with it. i have an image off centre  cannot access lower icons mouse needed no touch facility. ideas?**
A: I had the same problem. I made a fresh instal of rasperberian. Then went to the Waveshare site and manually changed the screen setup. It worked. You will also find that the touch will work in Pixel without the additional code given on the Waveshare site. There is also a good You Tube instructional. Again type in browser Waveshare 5 inc screen. Hope that helps.

**Q: will this work as an external monitor for my dslr or does it only work for rasberry pi?**
A: "Note: This product can only work on a Raspberry Pi but not work on a PC. That is, if the HDMI of the LCD is connected to the HDMI on a PC, the LCD doesn't display anything." source: https://www.waveshare.com/wiki/5inch_HDMI_LCD.
I wouldnt count on it working on anything else than RPi,
they seem to be selling model B which suposedly works with a pc so it might work with a dslr too.

**Q: how do you install it? it is not in english...**
A: Sorry got my son to do it

**Q: Can this be plugged in like a traditional pc monitor to have it display instantly upon plugging the hdmi in? mine powers on but no video signal**
A: Only if the driving source can output at the resolution of the display. Set the source to display at 800x480.
