How to use

Connect the display to the DSI connector on a supported Rock single-board computer following the board manufacturer’s pinout and mounting guidelines. Ensure the host device is powered off during installation, secure the display mechanically in the desired enclosure or bracket, and then power the host to allow the operating system to detect the panel. Configure display settings and touch drivers on the Rock device as required by the operating system image to enable full resolution and touch input.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, use the official or community-supported device tree overlays and drivers for Rock 5 Model A or Rock 4C+ to enable DSI output and touch functionality. Protect the panel from direct impact and prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures. When integrating into a permanent installation, allow adequate ventilation and secure cable routing to prevent stress on the DSI connector.
