Note: You will need to purchase a suitable Raspberry Pi and a recommended power supply to complete the full assembly. Although this product is compatible with all models of Raspberry Pi, for best results we recommend a Raspberry Pi3 or Raspberry Pi4 is used. Items 3 to 8 need to be assembled to the rear of the TFT screen along with your chosen PI.
3 – Package contents
4 – Cable Accessory Pack Contents
Note: The cable accessory pack supplied should contain the above listed parts. If any item is missing, please contact your local supplier for support.
5 – Tools required for assembly
This product can be assembled using a Phillips screwdriver (1×100)
6 – Environment and Handling
A clean working environment should be chosen to assemble the kit of parts.
CAUTION: This item is static sensitive, please take precautions to ensure
no damage can occur through transmission of any static charge to the circuit
board on the rear of the display and associated electronics.
7 – Assembly method
The kit comes part assembled with item #9 (Standoffs), already attached to the
rear of the TFT Display interface PCB
For a Raspberry Pi3 assembly you will require item #7 (HDMI~HDMI PCB). In this
case item #3 is not used.
For a Raspberry Pi4 assembly you will require item #3 (HDMI ~Micro HDMI
cable). In this case item #7 is not used.
An additional cable item #6 (I2C Cable) has been provided to allow I2C
connection of the touch interface via the GPIO connectors on the Raspberry Pi.
This allows all ports of the Raspberry Pi to be utilised for other
peripherals.
Note: Should you require an I2C connection method for the touch panel
interface, please contact your local supplier for information on how to
connect and install the relevant drivers for this function.
8 – Install Raspbian Image onto an SD Card
Download and install the latest Raspbian image onto a micro SD Card using
Win32DiskImager & SD Card reader. This can be downloaded from:
www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/
Follow the instruction on the Raspberry Pi we site for details on how to
install the software onto your SD Card
Once installed you will need to locate the SD Card into the Raspberry Pi board
as per images below. The SD card is located on the rear of the Raspberry Pi.
Figs. A& B, show the location of the SD Card viewed from the top and bottom,
respectively.
9 – Unit assembly – Raspberry Pi3/Pi4 Models
Place the TFT assembly (#1) face down onto your worktop with the orange flexi to the bottom left and connect the following cables as per image below. HDMI to Micro HDMI cable (Item #3), USB-A to Micro USB cable (Item #4), Internal Power Link Cable (Item #5)
9.1 – Unit assembly – Adding the Raspberry Pi board
Locate your Raspberry Pi on top of the 4 standoffs on the HDMI Board. (see #1
image below)
The HDMI Ports on the interface PCB and Raspberry Pi should be facing the same
direction. This will position the
USB/LAN ports for the PI facing the Orange Flexi and the GPIO Connectors
towards the bottom Edge of the screen (See image #2 below)
Note: If you are using a PI3 instead of Pi4, simply orientate the PI3 in the
same position as the PI 4 shown below and use the supplied mini HDMI PCB
connector (item#7) in place of the Micro HDMI Cable (item#4), to connect from
the TFT Panel HDMI connector to the HDMI connector on the Pi3 Board. (image #3
below)
9.2 – Unit assembly – Securing the Pi Board
Locate the screw pack (#8) and using the recommended screwdriver, (Phillips
1×100), fix your Raspberry Pi to the standoffs on the rear of the screen
assembly with the 4 screws provided. See image below
Raspberry Pi secured to 4 x Pillars
9.3 – Unit assembly – Connecting the Raspberry Pi
For a PI4 assembly connect the opposite ends of the cables attached to the interface PCB to the Raspberry Pi board as follows: Item #3 – micro HDMI connector to HDMI-0: Item #4 USBA connector to one of the PI USB Ports.
For PI3 installation and connection use item #7 HDMI~HDMI Interface PCB and
connect as below:
Locate the two HDMI connectors (as per image #1). Line up the mini HDMI PCB
with the two HDMI Sockets on the PI3 and the TFT Interface PCB, (image #2).
Push together to make connection. (image #3)
9.4 – Unit assembly – Connecting the Raspberry Pi – Internal Power cable
For ease of installation the TFT touchscreen assembly the Raspberry Pi can be powered from one 2.5A 12Vdc power supply via the barrel power connector on the main TFT HDMI Interface PCB. This power supply can be used for a Raspberry Pi3 or Pi4 model. Farnell Pt 2630905 is certified for this use. (image below)
9.5 – Unit assembly – Setting up the system for single power connection
To allow the PI to be powered by the TFT PCB and one power source you will need to connect an internal power link cable between the PI and the TFT Main board. (as described in section 8.0). To complete this connection, locate the black connector from the internal power cable (item #5), and connect to the following GPIO pins on the Raspberry Pi 3 or Raspberry Pi 4, 40-way GPIO connector. (as per images below)
Connecting the Power supply
Plug the 12 VDC power supply to the mating barrel connector on the HDMI interface PCB on the rear of the TFT Display assembly. (see images below).
Check connections and apply Power
Check all connections are correct and secure. Rotate the screen into an upright position, (the orange tab will then be located on the rear of the screen in the bottom right hand corner. (see image below)
CAUTION: This product should be placed on a stable, flat, non-conductive surface before power is applied and when in use.
Plug the power supply into your mains outlet and turn on. Once power is applied the display system will boot up in Raspbian desktop ready for use. (see image below example).
You can now load your own applications and software as required
