3.2 Manual Installation & Calibration (experienced user)
-Usage with a Raspberry Pi 4:
For the usage with a Raspberry Pi 4, a setting in „/boot/ config.txt“ must be edited. For this, please enter the following command:

sudo nano /boot/config.txt

Below the Point [pi4], you have to comment out the following command: dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d. This should look like the following: JOY-It
-Touchscreen Display m h

If you do not want to use our prepared Image or integrate the display into an existing system, you can also install the display manually, of course.
First, connect both devices with the provided HDMI cable. Connect both the display and the Raspberry Pi with the matching power supplies.

Caution! When starting the display for the first time, the Raspberry Pi has to be started AFTER the Display! Otherwise, the transmission of picture data will not function.

In order to display the image correctly when the display is started with the Raspberry Pi, the „config.txt“-file has to be edited first. Open it with the following command:

sudo nano /boot/config.txt

Now enter the following lines at the end of the file. Afterward, you can save the file using the key combination CTRL+O and exit the file with the combination CTRL+X.

hdmi_force_hotplug=1
hdmi_group=2
hdmi_mode=27

Now install the Touchscreen driver with the following command:

sudo apt-get install server-xorg-input-evdev

To ensure, that the installed drivers are always initialized after the existing drivers, please copy the configuration file with the following command (please write the command in one line !):

sudo cp /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/10- evdev.conf usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/45evdev.conf

Next, the driver must be embedded in the following file:

sudo nano usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/40-libinput.conf

In this file must be changed in the penultimate line of the driver from “libinput” to “evdev”:

Driver “evdev”

Next, the calibration tool can be installed and started with the following command:

sudo apt-get install xinput-calibrator

Then restart your Raspberry Pi:

sudo reboot

Before your can start the calibration tool, you have to create the file for the calibration settings (please write the command in one line !):

sudo nano /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-calibration.conf

Now enter the following settings in this file:

Section “InputClass”
Identifier “calibration”
MatchProduct “eGalax Inc.
USB ouchController”
Option “Calibration” “4094 -35 4026 10”
Option “SwapAxes” “1”
EndSection

Restart your Raspberry Pi then:

sudo reboot

Now you can start the calibration tool with the following command (please write the command in one line !):

xinput_calibrator –device “eGalax Inc. USB TouchController”

The display will now show four consecutive points that you will have to press. After that, four calibration values will be outputted to you, which you must enter in the previously created file „99-calibration.conf“. For this, please enter the following command (in one line):

sudo nano /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-calibration.conf

Enter the following content here and amend the four values of the “calibration” option with those, which have been outputted to you in the previous step:

Section “InputClass”
Identifier “calibration”
MatchProduct “eGalax Inc.
USB TouchController”
Option “Calibration” “4094 -35 4026 10”
Option “SwapAxes” “1”
EndSection

Finally, you have to restart the Raspberry Pi for the last time:

sudo reboot

Now the Touch function is ready to use.

3.3 Usage with a desktop PC
Connect the display with the provided power supply. Then, connect your computer with the display, using an HDMI– or VGA- cable, depending on your preference.
You can further connect your computer with the Touch interface using the USB cable if the operation via Touchscreen is desired.
This requires an additional driver installation though. !
Attention! On some systems, it may happen that the latest drivers are not fully functional. In this case, better results can be achieved with older drivers. You can download an older driver here.
The drivers for the Touch function can be found on this website.
