Weight: 450gGetting StartedTo get started with the 10.1 inch Raspberry Pi Waveshare Touch Screen Display with Case, follow these steps:1. Connect the display to your Raspberry Pi using the provided HDMI cable.
2. Connect the USB cable to your Raspberry Pi's USB port and the display's USB port.
3. Power on the display and Raspberry Pi.
4. Configure your Raspberry Pi to output to the HDMI port (if not already set).Code Examples### Example 1: Using the Touch Screen with Python (Pygame)This example demonstrates how to use the touch screen display with Python and the Pygame library to create a simple touch-based interface.
```python
import pygame
import sys# Initialize Pygame
pygame.init()# Set up the display
screen = pygame.display.set_mode((1280, 800))# Set up the touch screen
touch_screen = pygame.touch.getTouchScreen()while True:
for event in pygame.event.get():
if event.type == pygame.QUIT:
pygame.quit()
sys.exit()
elif event.type == pygame.Touch_down:
# Handle touch events
touch_x, touch_y = event.pos
print(f"Touch detected at ({touch_x}, {touch_y})")# Update the screen
pygame.display.flip()
```
### Example 2: Using the Touch Screen with Kivy (GUI Framework)This example demonstrates how to use the touch screen display with Kivy, a Python-based GUI framework, to create a simple touch-based interface.
```python
import kivy
from kivy.app import App
from kivy.uix.label import Label
from kivy.uix.button import Button
from kivy.uix.boxlayout import BoxLayoutclass TouchScreenApp(App):
def build(self):
layout = BoxLayout(orientation='vertical')label = Label(text='Hello, World!')
button = Button(text='Click me!')layout.add_widget(label)
layout.add_widget(button)return layoutdef on_touch_down(self, touch):
# Handle touch events
touch_x, touch_y = touch.pos
print(f"Touch detected at ({touch_x}, {touch_y})")if __name__ == '__main__':
TouchScreenApp().run()
```
These examples demonstrate the basic usage of the 10.1 inch Raspberry Pi Waveshare Touch Screen Display with Case. You can build upon these examples to create more complex and interactive interfaces for your projects.TroubleshootingIf the display does not turn on, check the power supply and ensure it is set to 5V, 2A.
If the touch screen is not responding, restart the Raspberry Pi and try again.
For further troubleshooting, refer to the Waveshare documentation and Raspberry Pi forums.
