DSI-15PIN Interface Definition



Hardware Connection

Used with Pi 4B/3B+/3A+/3B/2B/B+/A+

1. Use the DSI-Cable-12cm cable to connect the 7inch DSI LCD to the 15PIN DSI1 interface on the Raspberry Pi motherboard.
2. Use the 2PIN power cable to connect the LCD power interface to the 5V GND header on the Raspberry Pi motherboard.
3. For convenience, the Raspberry Pi 4 can be secured to the back of the 7inch DSI LCD with screws, and copper pillars can be assembled as shown below:

Used with Pi 5/CM4/CM3+/CM3

1. Use the DSI-Cable-12cm cable to connect the 7inch DSI LCD to the 22PIN DSI1 interface on the Raspberry Pi motherboard.
2. Use the 2PIN power cable to connect the LCD power interface to the 40PIN GPIO header on the Raspberry Pi.
3. For convenience, the Raspberry Pi 5 can be secured to the back of the 7inch DSI LCD with screws, and copper pillars can be assembled as shown below:


Software Settings

Method 1: Use Raspberry Pi Imager to flash the latest official image

For Raspberry Pi OS / Ubuntu / Kali / Volumio and Retropie systems on Raspberry Pi.

  • 1. Connect the TF card to the PC, download and use Raspberry Pi Imager to flash the corresponding system image.

  • 2. After image flashing is complete, open the config.txt file in the root directory of the SD card, add the following code at the end of config.txt, save and safely eject
dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d
dtoverlay=vc4-kms-dsi-ili9881-7inch
  • 3. Insert the SD card into the Raspberry Pi, power on the Raspberry Pi, wait for about 30 seconds normally to enter the display, and touch works normally after the system starts (initial username: pi, password: raspberry)

Adjusting Backlight Brightness

  • 1. Click the top-left menu, go to Preferences → Control Center, and select Screens

  • 2. Go to "Screen"->"DSI-1"->"Brightness" , check the backlight brightness you need to set, and finally click "Apply" to complete the backlight setting.

You can also use our graphical backlight adjustment tool (this program is only for Bookworm and Bullseye systems). Users can download, install and use it by entering the following commands:

wget https://www.QD.net/w/upload/f/f4/Brightness.zip
unzip Brightness.zip
cd Brightness
sudo chmod +x install.sh
./install.sh

After installation, you can open the program from Start menu->Accessories ->Brightness, as shown below:

Display Rotation

Bookworm Display Rotation

GUI interface rotation

  • 1. Open the "Screen Configuration" application;

  • 2. Go to "Screen"->"DSI-1"->"Touchscreen" , check "10-005d Goodix Capacitive TouchScreen"

  • 3. Click "Apply" and close the current window. Restart according to the pop-up prompt, and then touchscreen selection is complete.

  • 4. Go to "Screen"->"DSI-1"->"Orientation" , check the direction you need to rotate, and finally click “Apply” to complete synchronous rotation of the display and touch.

Note: Only the Bookworm system supports the above synchronous rotation method. For Bullseye and Butser systems, after rotating the display, you need to manually set touch rotation separately.

Touch Mode Selection

Trixie and Bookworm systems support two touch modes, which can be switched in the Screen Configuration > Touchscreen menu:

  • 1.Mouse Emulation (default)
Single click = left mouse button function
Long press = right mouse button function
Supports double-click
Does not support page sliding and multi-touch functions

Note: This mode is suitable for scenarios requiring mouse operation, such as double-clicking to open the file manager and long-pressing to implement the right-click function.

  • 2.Multitouch
Supports multi-touch functions
Supports page sliding
Does not support double-click and long-press right-click functions

Note: This mode is suitable for touch-optimized scenarios, such as web browsing and scrolling lists.
