7″ Touch Screen – Connect the GPIO

First you need 2 jumper cable and a flat flex cable. Both are included. The flat flex cable have to be connected with the adapter board of the display. Here you can see it:

 

Now it depends on which additional board is used or only the Raspberry Pi. The jumper cable always are connected with gpio pin 1 and 5 of the display board (5V and GROUND)
