Here’s a step-by-step guide to use the 2.4-inch TFT LCD touch screen module with an Arduino:

Step 1: Download the Test Program

  1. Download the Arduino test program from the provided source or download column.

  2. Refer to the test program documentation included in the package for specific details about each test.

Step 2: Connect the Arduino Development Board

  1. Directly plug the TFT module into your Arduino UNO or Mega2560 board.

  2. Once connected, power on the Arduino board.

Step 3: Copy the Required Libraries

  1. Ensure that the Arduino IDE is installed on your computer. If not, download it from the official Arduino website.

  2. Decompress the downloaded test program package.

  3. Copy the libraries from the Install libraries folder (visible in the image you uploaded) into the libraries folder of your Arduino project directory.

    • Note: If you’re unsure where the Arduino project directory is, check in your Arduino IDE settings or look in the Documents/Arduino folder.

Step 4: Compile and Upload the Program

  1. Open the sample code from the Example folder within the package in the Arduino IDE.

  2. Compile the code and upload it to the Arduino board.

    • Tip: If you're new to this, go to the Arduino IDE menu and click Sketch > Upload after selecting the right board and port in Tools.

Step 5: Run and Observe

  1. After uploading, the program should start running. Observe the display; if it shows the expected visuals, the program has successfully uploaded and is running.

  2. For example, you should see a graphical display similar to what is shown in the images.
