How to use with Raspbian

• Step 1, Install Raspbian official image file
  

1) Download the latest image from the official download

https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspbian/

2) Install the system according to the official tutorial steps.

• Step 2, Install the driver for the LCD
  

1) Connect the 2.8inch RPi Display with the Raspberry Pi and plug it in

2) Log into the command line interface for Raspberry Pi（Initial user name: pi, Password: raspberry）, Get the latest drive from GitHub (the raspberry pie needs to connect to the Internet), Execute the following commands:

sudo rm -rf LCD-show
git clone https://github.com/goodtft/LCD-show.git
chmod -R 755 LCD-show
cd LCD-show/
sudo ./LCD28-show

After execution, the system will be restarted. If the display and touch are normal, the installation is successful.

How to rotate the display direction

This method only applies to the Raspberry Pi series of display screens, other display screens do not apply.

• Method 1，If the driver is not installed, execute the following command (Raspberry Pi needs to connected to the Internet):

sudo rm -rf LCD-show
git clone https://github.com/goodtft/LCD-show.git
chmod -R 755 LCD-show
cd LCD-show/
sudo ./XXX-show 90

After execution, the driver will be installed. The system will automatically restart, and the display screen will rotate 90 degrees to display and touch normally.
（ ' XXX-show ' can be changed to the corresponding driver, and ' 90 ' can be changed to 0, 90, 180 and 270, respectively representing rotation angles of 0 degrees, 90 degrees, 180 degrees, 270 degrees）

• Method 2，If the driver is already installed, execute the following command:

cd LCD-show/
sudo ./rotate.sh 90

After execution, the system will automatically restart, and the display screen will rotate 90 degrees to display and touch normally.
（ ' 90 ' can be changed to 0, 90, 180 and 270, respectively representing rotation angles of 0 degrees, 90 degrees, 180 degrees, 270 degrees）
If the rotate.sh prompt cannot be found, use Method 1 to install the latest drivers
