How to use ?

We provide a sample Arduino code, which can be used to test/learn the working of display shield. This code is tested on Arduino Uno and Arduino Mega

Installing Display library

To interface TFT display with Arduino, we need to install GXF and TFTLCD libraries

You can download the library from here

Now extract the file to Arduino libraries folder. The folder might look as below

Sample Code

This sample code is for TFT display HX8347 series only. This code is tested on both Arduino Uno and Arduino Mega
