Select and download the .exe generated for your specific EVE variant to test both the TFT and touch functionality of your display.

1. Select EVE2 or EVE3 or EVE4

2. Select your display size:
  • 29 - 2.9" 320 x 102 TFT
    35 - 3.5" 320 x 240 TFT
    38 - 3.8" 480 x 116 TFT
    39 - 3.9" 480 x 128 TFT
    43 - 4.3" 480 x 272 TFT
    50 - 5.0" 800 x 480 TFT
    52 - 5.2" 800 x 128 TFT
    70 - 7.0" 800 x 480 TFT
3. Select your touch screen
  • TPN - No touch panel
    TPR - Resistive touch panel. Uses FT812/BT816 Graphics controller
    TPC - Capacitive touch panel. Uses FT813/BT815 Graphics controller
RUN THE EXE

If you have a touch screen, TPR or TPC, you will need to calibrate the touch screen by pressing the dots. After the calibration is complete, you will see Matrix Orbital with a blue circle. If you press the circle it will enlarge.
